Direction: Christopher Nolan
Country: UK
Following, the debut feature film of genius filmmaker Christopher Nolan (Memento; Inception; Dunkirk), is a fascinating and immersive neo-noir enhanced with terrific acting. Filmed in black and white, it sort of nods to Godard but becomes quite darker in tone, giving us a hint of what Nolan can do with a low budget. The film, compellingly written and directed, manages to be provocative in an understated way, probing the earlier paths of success that turn Nolan into one of the most respected and innovative filmmakers of our times.
