New Delhi, Nov. 15 -- Christopher Nolan has revealed that he used more than 2 million ft of film for his forthcoming adaptation of Homer's Odyssey. The film, now in post-production, completed shooting in August. Speaking to Empire magazine, Nolan said: "I've been out on [the sea] for the last four months. We got the cast who play the crew of Odysseus's ship out there on the real waves, in the real places . We really wanted to capture how hard those journeys would have been for people. And the leap of faith that was being made in an unmapped, uncharted world."

He added: "We shot over 2 million ft of film."

The production was filmed fully in the large-format Imax system, which requires far more film than standard 35mm. Indepth Cine estima...
