(BCN) -- Only 30 theaters worldwide are playing the movie "Oppenheimer" in the large-screen format for which it is intended to be played -- and two of them are in the Bay Area. The film centers around the "father" of the atomic bomb, Julius Robert Oppenheimer, and some of its scenes feature the University of California, Berkeley campus, where Oppenheimer was a professor of physics from 1929 to 1943. 4 Bay Area restaurants receive new Michelin stars The AMC Metreon 16 theater in San Francisco and the Regal Hacienda Crossings theater in Dublin are the two venues in the Bay presenting the movie in the 70mm format. The film was shot using one of the highest resolution cameras available today, a combination of IMAX 65mm and Panavision 65mm film stock. It is then best projected on IMAX 70mm, which Bay Area moviegoers can enjoy. What's special about seeing the movie in the 70mm presentation is essentially the sheer size of the screen.

SYDNEY (AP) — How much of a role Sam Kerr can physically play for Australia at the Women’s World Cup remains completely uncertain.Even if her time on the sidelines with a calf muscle injury is extended, though, Australia’s iconic striker still has important role to play for the tournament co-hosts after helping to inspire the Matildas to a 1-0 opening win over Ireland on Thursday.“Obviously losing a player like Sam, probably the best player in the world, and just for her as a person, we were completely heartbroken,” said Steph Catley, who scored the 52nd-minute penalty that secured Australia’s win in front of a record crowd. “We had to gather ourselves pretty quickly, but we used her spirit and used the fact that she wasn’t able to be out there with us to help us push on. And I think that’s what it’s going to take for as long as maybe she misses.”Both host nations were in action on the opening day.

HOYLAKE, England (AP) — Crouching over the ball with his legs wide apart, Christo Lamprecht — all 6-foot-8 (2.03 meters) of him — crunched his last drive of the day into the fairway and more than 350 yards.“Look at the size of him,” was one of the muffled remarks from outside the ropes along the 18th fairway as the 22-year-old South African loped after his ball, his golf pants not long enough to cover his socks.Lamprecht’s first ever round at a British Open was one this amateur, and those watching him, won’t quickly forget.At one stage on Thursday at Royal Liverpool, Lamprecht — a college kid from Georgia Tech — was leading the Open by three strokes. He wound up shooting 5-under 66 and was set to be high on the leaderboard by the end of the first round.So, did that come as a surprise to a hard-to-miss player who was certainly turning heads at Hoylake?“I mean, as an amateur, yes, it is,” said Lamprecht, who was considered among the top college players in the U.S. for the last two yea...Investigación sobre el asalto al Capitolio: se espera testimonio clave de exaliado de Trump
