Christopher Nolan Christopher Nolan

Introduction

Christopher Nolan doesn’t make sense. And that is exactly how he likes it. In twenty-three years and through twelve films, he has defied the laws of Hollywood by creating startling, original genre pieces that have revelled in their own complexity, confounding every maxim by which the studios hope to appeal to the widest audience. And yet he does that too. Cinemas fill on the possibility of the next Nolan film. Whatever form it might take.

Nolan never stoops to conquer. He believes in his audience. That we are up to the epic journey he will set before us. He believes in the highest common denominator.
