Christopher Nolan on Interstellar’s success upon re-release 10 years later: Rewarding to see it continues to have a life
Hindustan TimesThe hardest movie ticket to get this weekend in the US was for a film audiences have been able to watch at home for years: Christopher Nolan's Interstellar. But 10 years later, to have new audiences coming and experiencing it in the way that we’d originally intended it on the big IMAX screens and in particular on those IMAX film prints? “We put an enormous amount of work and effort into the IMAX 70mm film format release at the time feeling like we didn’t know how much longer we’d be able to do that.” During its time, Interstellar was received warmly and an unambiguous success, but it also had its detractors. “A lot of these people were younger people who, it was clear to me, had seen the film in the home and hadn’t had the chance to see it on the big screen,” Nolan said.
