What is the significance of watching ``2001: A Space Odyssey'' in 70mm print and IMAX digital?

Print screening in the original format, digital IMAX that reproduces the large screen

However, for this new print screening of ``2001: A Space Odyssey,'' the screen size of the National Film Archive, which will be the venue, is 4.60 x 9.70 m, which is the same size as the medium-sized auditorium of multiplex cinemas across the country. Equivalent to that provided. Therefore, the ``visual experience on a large screen'' that 70mm is supposed to provide may feel a little lacking.

But thankfully, for two weeks starting October 19th, a 4K digital restoration of ``2001: A Space Odyssey'' made from the original 65mm negative will be shown in limited release at designated IMAX digital theaters nationwide. This one shares the same master as the ``4K ULTRA HD Blu-ray'' software of the same film, which will be released on November 21st, and is a DCP rather than a print screening. However, the image quality has been carefully digitally cleaned up, and above all, you can see ``2001: A Space Odyssey'' as it should be, in a gigantic IMAX size.
