A little under 90 years ago, conversations were probably had by the editors of The Playlist Gazette & Cinematograph Pamphlet (then a thrupenny half-sheet available from your local grime-faced newsboy) about which of us was gonna travel all the way to the Big City to see that moving picture “The Jazz Singer” with synchronized sound, and which of us would stay in the sticks and watch the silent, cue-card version. Similar conversations have been going on this week, as suddenly we’ve all become format and exhibition experts while choosing how we wish to consume our RDA of Christopher Nolan, in the form of his latest grandly ambitious epic, “Interstellar” (our controversial review is here).
