"It is all about to change yet again Kodak, that largest name for film, is coming back.

So, like Dunkirk, the film by that renowned Christopher Nolan (who) uses only film for his picture.
"And in a month or so, the man himself Mr Nolan is coming to India to inaugurate or at least lend support to a few matters," the 75-year-old actor wrote.
The actor seems to be very optimistic about the revival of Kodak film at a time when it is all about digital film. He also explained a bit why the movie world is still referred to as the "film industry" even in the digital age.
"Firstly, the archival of films, their repairs and preservation, and secondly to support the Kodak world all over again. I believe that Los Angeles, Hollywood is already all back to film again. They say the quality and feel and colour of film is unmatched, so what happens to digital... It shall exist, it shall co-exist and film shot on celluloid shall be sent to the lab for its development, but all post-production work shall be digital.
"I mean what kind of times are we living in," the Coolie actor wrote.
