The Charisma and Brilliance of Christopher Nolan
Hello Everyone, Namaste 🙏😊
How are you all doing? Cinema 🎥 has always been a important and influential part of our culture, lives and society. However, only a few filmmakers leave their everlasting impression and legacy becoming a brand and legend. Cinematic arts is a very competitive arena, it requires constant refresh, conceptual framework and also the craft. Just like any other art form cinema has also happened to influence and attract it's audience.
Today i would like to talk about a filmmaker who's work has touched every one and his filmmaking style is quite intensely artistic and innovative. His works are no less than classic hits both among masses and critics. He is the Academy Award Winner 2024 in the Best Picture Category for his directorial, Oppenheimer. The one and only Christopher Nolan. This man is just magical behind camera, his behind the screen presence, his extreme passion about his work is just amazing. I have always been a great fan of his work. Christopher Nolan's filmography includes 12 films till date, while he made his directorial debut with (Following) released in 1998 and Oppenheimer(2023) his latest release won seven academy awards.
The Dark Knight trilogy starring Christian Bale with Batman Begins released in 2005, The Dark Knight in 2008 and the Dark Knight Rises in 2012 made Christopher Nolan a common household name and definitely among the top directors in the industry. However, The Prestige released in 2006 was the first Christopher Nolan film i watched. Its a great psychological thriller film starring Christian Bale and Hugh Jackman.
Christopher Nolan started his career with psychological thrillers such as Memento in 2000, Insomnia in 2002, The Prestige in 2006. Have already claimed admiration and success in thriller genre. He dived deep into Science Fiction (Sci-fi) genre with totally remarkable films like Inception in 2010 and then Interstellar 2014. Both the films are epics in the sci-fi genre. I still remember watching Inception and Interstellar for the first time and it was one hell of the experience. It are these two works got him high acclaimed among the masses. I also used to quote to my friends that it's very difficult to understand a Christopher Nolan in the first watch itself, 😂 because it's story telling is just too complex, artistic and cinematic at the same time and that make him stand out.
Christopher Nolan is just one hell of a filmmakers who can give magic touch to any genre he puts his mind into. He is a definitely gifted and few filmmakers who hungers for greatness in his work and craft. Dunkirk released in 2017 a historical war thriller is a great experience for world war II Era considered also one the greatest war time films by many. He came back into Sci-fi with Tenet released in 2020, another one of its kind thriller marked by brilliance of Nolan, definitely above ones head in the first watch.
The recent release and Academy Award Winner, Oppenheimer a biographical thriller starring starring Cillian Murphy is another great addition to Nolan's masterpiece. Nolan has now established himself as one the greatest filmmakers in the industry. His work is no doubt is a result of his unconventional deliverance, epic story telling and also bring his vision into reality. Let's hope for many extraordinary hits from Nolan in the coming years.
