The summer couldn’t have been better with box-office heavyweights like ‘Oppenheimer’ and ‘Barbie.’ The audiences have been waiting for the ultimate box-office clash of Christopher Nolan and Greta Gerwig’s massive projects. The films are out, and the cinegoers have loved both films, and the films are headed to enter the $1 billion club soon.
Christopher Nolan’s ‘Oppenheimer’ was the boldest and most real film in the director’s filmography. It traces the battle between morality and duty and how Robert J. Oppenheimer navigated through this during the first nuclear detonation during World War II. However, one of the peculiar features of the film is the low audio. The director addressed it, and it was not a quality issue, but an artistic choice.
Christopher Nolan Did Not Make The Actors Re-voice In Post Production Of ‘Oppenheimer’
The Cillian Murphy-starrer ‘Oppenheimer’ is doing very well box office-wise. While we are writing this article, the film would have grossed around $551 million. The film has many distinct characteristics that make it one of the best cinematic masterpieces to date.
Nolan did not use any CGI for the film, and he shot the entire film with an IMAX camera. Despite all the plus points, audiences were disappointed as they were unable to decipher the dialogue.
During an interview with Insider, Christopher Nolan addressed the issue. He cited the reason for the low voice, saying, “I like to use the performance that was given in the moment rather than have the actor re-voice it later, which is an artistic choice that some people disagree with, and that’s their right.”

The IMAX Cameras Used To Shoot Were Extremely Loud On Sets
While Christopher Nolan refused to re-voice the actors’ dialogues in the film, the cameras he used to shoot had extremely loud noises. But the director has assured that the system is getting better with each passing day.
During the interview, Christopher Nolan said, “There are certain mechanical improvements. And actually, Imax is building new cameras right now that are going to be even quieter. But the real breakthrough is in software technology that allows you to filter out the camera noise.”
He continued, “That has improved massively in the 15 or so years that I’ve been using these cameras. Which opens up for you to do more intimate scenes that you would not have been able to do in the past.”
