Nolan's Magic Tricks | The Prestige, Inception, Interstellar, Tenet (briefly) | Nolan Retrospective PART 3 #090

Tis' Nolan Month!   Dhruv and Amartya conduct a full retrospective of the director's work, with Varun Bhakay (@cinephilestock) and Prithwish Roy (@little.lord_fauntleroy) joining in for all the discussions.   New Team Member: Self-Ascribed “Nolan Megafan” Ashwani Kumar Tiwari (@safaed_syaahi)   In Part 3, we look at the films that gave birth to Dhoom 3 and Nolan’s annoying fandom. This is, of course, “The Prestige,” “Inception,” and “Interstellar.” Looking beyond that (tiring) discourse, though, we find all three of these films to be intricately structured, thrillingly original, and wildly ambitious works. “Interstellar’s” sentimentality and “Inception’s” style divides opinions. Nonetheless, there’s a general appreciation for the scope, scale, and imagination of all three films.   We also talk about “Tenet” briefly.   The two things that remain consistent, though, are -- (1) his experimentations with time and (2) his belief in lying (or deception) as a fundamental truth.   Listen to the full episode to hear us discuss all this in minute detail!   TIME CODES   “The Prestige” (2006): [06:50-43:10] "Inception” (2010): [43:11-01:20:53] "Interstellar" (2014) : [1:20:54-02:07:30] "Tenet" (2020) : [02:11:45-02:23:00] Follow our Instagram page: https://instagram.com/queenisdead.filmpodcast Please follow Varun's awesome blog!
