Just as different baseball teams consistently hire the same managers again and again, studio executives fall prey to familiar-is-good thinking, repeatedly shortlisting identical names for their high-profile movies, be it Stephen… Full Story »

Cinema is a felt medium, and most directors would play to that strength. Others, like Christopher Nolan, let the constructed thematic intricacies of their images carry equal weight as the easier-elicited, felt aspects. Nolan has earned the trust of his audience by playing to the smartest version of it, by working within a tradition of genre-bent stories that depend most upon the figuring out and thinking over. Christopher Nolan's Inception was released last week to resounding praise, establishing the director as one of only a handful of cinematic artists whose name has become synonymous both with critical plaudits and box… Full Story »

Knowing Nolan... Again < PopMatters
Zibb.com: Media/Movies & Film (Industry News & Blogs) &bull Jul 22, 2010
Christopher Nolan is the bellwether for a new kind of filmmaker, one that successfully merges Hollywood classicism with the best of the post-modern revision. With only seven feature length films in his little over a decade old canon, Christopher Nolan stands at the crossroads of artform greatness.

Instead, he's the bellwether for a new kind of filmmaker, one that successfully merges Hollywood classicism with the best of… Full Story »
