VistaVision Expert: The Best Film Format to Watch One Battle After Another

VistaVision is back—and you won’t believe how epic it looks on the big screen! In this episode of Perf Damage, we break down every way you can watch Paul Thomas Anderson's new film One Battle After Another: the ultra-rare 8-perf horizontal VistaVision screenings (only four theaters in the world!), massive 70mm, towering IMAX 15-perf film, and DCP. Charlotte—recently quoted as the VistaVision expert—explains why this is a historic film event that hasn’t happened since Strategic Air Command in 1955, and what makes VistaVision different from every other format. Adam shares his favorite line from the movie, we compare formats head-to-head, and we give you the inside scoop on the best film format to see this must-watch release.
