2001 A Space Odyssey on IMAX film

T
he IMAX theatre in Regina brought in a film copy of 2001 (one of four such prints struck from the original negatives). I've seen it quite a number of times and went to support Philippe Mather who was speaking before it, but the film shook me to the core. Wow, what an experience!!! The film is certainly slow and sometimes inexplicable, and it was during the slowest or the most confusing scenes that the entire experience did something I didn't know could still happen - I was in awe over a movie. Very cool, very fun. Details I've never seen before. Sounds that should never be heard, let alone felt as they were at this screening, all completed the event. Wow again.
