[@SiddyMta]

Nolan always talked about subjectivity.. to this day he makes movies from the subjective point of view rather than how it is interpreted by other people. And Oppenheimer is the best example of subjective film making. I guess that's unique for Chris.

[@Epictrailers921]

This is what an interview should be. Calm and interesting, not like most of them nowadays, where everything has to be over the top and fake

[@wattsnottaken1]

Memento Is Christopher Nolan’s best movie in my opinion and his second best is insomnia I know people are going to crucify me but that’s my opinion. Super pumped up for his new movie 2023

[@target-tk6vb]

@@wattsnottaken1 its the experience viewer and literally any nolan movie could top the list cause they're all good

[@GodBlessOurCountry]

Definitely, a example of mid 2000s interview or just the interview itself

[@kokomanation]

I have to admit I liked insomnia even more than Memento Robin Williams performance was amazing

[@Ahmed-bk1gc]

Chris nolan has looked the same since he was 9 lmao. That man doesn't age.

[@mac2312]

He has mastered time travel. His movies are there to tease us

[@GodBlessOurCountry]

@@mac2312um, why he has gray hair 😂

[@spideymoin8146]

Such enough conscious and thoughtful man able to understand things and communicate thoughts clearly and logically. Brilliant.

[@anvaryusupov8245]

That would been amazing if this interviewer would been in Hollywood Reporters Roundtable

[@GodBlessOurCountry]

What’s crazy is that he’s sound young but he’s never aged ❤❤

[@Charles12]

he has aged clearly, just very well

[@S.M.G.20]

When Nolan talked about how easy it is to make an amnesia movie and how anything can be true, I immediately thought of Scorsese's Shutter Island. In a way, it's an excellent movie, but its easy to use that kind of story plot to deceive audiences.

[@tonyb1984]

Sergio Gregorius shutter island was great. also don't understand why people are confused with the very ending of the film. pretty much self explanatory with Leo's line!! agree??

[@samarthur8605]

Not just that but the predictability of it. I remember a friend of mine was talking to me about his 'next great film' he had ambitions to send it to film festivals etc. Essentially it followed a man with amnesia who was investigating a crime. Immediately I was like: "Let me guess, it turns out he's the killer?" and he was like: "Damn what a lucky guess". Nah, not a guess. Chris Nolan predicted my friend's movie more than a decade ago without even knowing anything about it.

[@GodBlessOurCountry]

Young Chris wow, he’s born to be a director ❤

[@NBC.SATURDAY.NIGHT.LIVE.]

Tenet is coming out this year ! U know what that means ?! NOLAN MARATHON !

[@aljazkordic6287]

Absolutely

[@Tomhardy8969]

The look on the face of guy @0:57 like he's unable to grasp what Nolan saying

[@hannanatalisa3282]

When this interview was done Christopher Nolan is 34 years old, same as my age now.

[@crizedin]

Man, this is a golden video. My advice for every filmmaker or screen writer or every person involved in the procces of producing a film, do not go to a film university for 4 or 5 years. you learn just to bring coffe to the cats and crew. youtube and google are the new film schools.

[@KakashiTheFirst]

This guy looks like he has a promising career ahead of him. Anyway, yall see the movie Tenet yet? Whoever directed that is a genius

[@k.samuel8721]

great interview

[@joey3708]

LEGEND 💯💯💯

[@birhamsalu7248]

4:35 he said "dreaming". Its true that he had the idea if the movie inception a while ago

[@abdelrahmansalah8986]

he also said ''backwards'' at 3:12 ringing any bells?!

[@Kampyy531]

Chris keeps saying “thriller,” and I keep thinking “this is a damn horror film” lol.

[@muhammadzaidmuckba9097]

Its horrifyingly beautiful :)

[@ujustgotdunkedon4523]

This is when I was born.

[@hannanatalisa3282]

8:33 In the movie it's clear that what Lenny has is not amnesia.

[@jirahloewen9457]

20 years ago Incase anyone forgot what year this is

[@jbm421]

If you listen closely Nolan's accent breaks a few times. Its the only interview I've seen of his where it happens.

[@anvaryusupov8245]

He holds glasses the whole interview. And now I wonder does he actually wear glasses?

[@PS-jh3in]

Good catch 😮 never seen him wear glasses!

[@PS-jh3in]

Since I read your comment, I came across photos on him on Memento set wearing glasses

[@miss_xenia_]

They're probably just reading glasses :)

[@passport3763]

The guy interviewing him is so badass... I mean so is him but thats expected

[@lewisanderton8062]

Woah! He's like... a... baby.

[@jesustovar2549]

Nolan was right about the dense vastness of Ridley Scott's late productions, I have nothing against that, in fact I like it and I see nothing against aspiring to greatness, but I think it is a prediction of what Nolan converted himself.

[@clubpenguinbender682]

Tenía unos 30 años y se ve igual que ahora xd

[@rafaelcabralwilliams]

Name of the interviewer please?

[@15nanoseconds]

Does anyone know the name of the host?

[@kmacgregor6361]

In the video, it labels him as Elvis Mitchell.
