Christopher Nolan - The Maestro of Filmmaking

                                                Christopher Nolan-The Maestro of Filmmaking

Entertainment is that essential part which human can't live without. It makes our brain stressless and refills the energy which gets drained out because of continuous work. Now an average person can take entertainment from anything and the list will go on. One of the things which stands out in "anything" is watching movies. Cinemas take us to a new world for some hours and a good movie will compel us hypothesizing different moments. But just making any kind of film will not make audience rush to the theaters. The storytelling,script,acting and so on will have to be spot on to make an excellent movie. Creating movies consistently with all of these elements throughout the years is very difficult for a director but there are some geniuses who have delivered masterpieces over and over again and the name which stands out arguably the most in the genre of filmmaking is Christopher Nolan.


                                                                                      Christopher Nolan                                    

The British-American filmmaker was born on 30th July,1970 in London,England. Growing up, Nolan used to watch the same films different times  and used to do research on that film.He was heavily inspired by science fiction movies from the begining.His passion for filmamking indulged him in making short films right after his graduation. Nolan officially debuted as a director with the film "Following" which was released in 1998. The success of the film had given Nolan the chance to make his second film titled "Memento" after a couple of years. The film was premiered at the 2000 Venice film festival and it received a standing ovation which was rare back then. The film took Nolan to an another level as even after so many films,
"Memento" is considered one of the best films of all time. 

                                                                                      Film: Memento


After the huge success, Nolan approached Warner bros with the idea to make a film on "Batman" which was risky considering the situation of comic based films back in 2000s. Nolan insisted on connecting it with real world as much as he could and not to use CGI. Little did everyone knew that it was the birth of the greatest trilogy films as the first venture of batman(Batman Begins) was a homerun.

Following the big commercial success of Batman Begins, Nolan started working on his film "Prestige" which he was working from 2001.Although the film wasn't a blockbuster like "Batman Begins". The next film in his career was the infamous "Batman: The Dark Knight" which initially Nolan didn't want to work on but Warner bros insisted him. The Dark Knight is considered to be the best superhero film till now by most fans around the world because of the acting masterclass, story writing, actions, filmography and so on. The film earned over a billion dollars worldwide. Still up to date, the ending of the Dark Knight is vividly fresh in everyone's mind who watched the film.

                                                                                 THE DARK KNIGHT         

After the roaring success of the Dark Knight, Warner bros signed Nolan to make "Inception" which he had the idea for 9 years. The world wasn't ready for this mind thriller and complex writing as this movie created so many questions on the viewer's mind. Even today, the mysterious "Inception" remains unsolved as Nolan never gave the right explanation of the ending.

After this, Nolan went on to create arguably the best of his works and one of the classics of all time, "Interstellar". The acting, story developing, script developing, script maintaining the actual theories of physics, historic background score cemented legacy of this film in the history books. Anybody enjoying this movie will never forget the docking scene.                  

Nolan then directed movies like "Dunkirk" which is reviewed as one of the best films on world war, worked as a producer and co-producer in some films. After the lockdown, another film of Nolan titled "Tenet" released in theaters which is another mind thriller with so many twists and out of the world cinematography. The upcoming project of Nolan is "Oppenheimer" which already generated huge excitement thanks to Nolan casting big stars and the story is set at an very exciting times.            

                                                                               A Film of World War: DUNKIRK



The thing which makes Nolan standout from other directors is that he is never afraid to take new risks and he likes to concentrate on complicating themes like time, memory and personal identity. He is also regarded as the philosophical filmmaker for his ideas in movies. His movies are a great example of perfection and beauty. He built a cinematic world with symmetry. A  world of wonders.
