One Thousand Four Hundred and Fifty-Four Chaos Pattern

"The killer?" Renly knew about Andy, but if he didn't speak, he was already a blockbuster. So far, their cooperative relationship has always maintained a harmonious and happy relationship, because the two people's balance between business and art has been at a relatively compatible rhythm. Therefore, what Andy can call a killer must be worth looking forward to.

Andy didn't deliberately cheat, but only said one name, but the anticipation and curiosity leaked out overflowed, "Christopher Nolan."

Each era has its own cultural imprint, and each generation has its own classic worship. Among these cultures, some have withstood the erosion and tempering of time, and have become true classics, which are widely circulated;

The former is like the "Star Wars" series, and the latter is like "Growing Pains."

It can be said that Christopher Nolan is one of the icons of film culture in the 21st century, starting from the debut of "Following", to the mature style of "Memento" and "Batman", and then to the "Batman" trilogy The well-known, then "Deadly Magic" and "Inception" went to the altar, and later "Interstellar" and "Dunkirk" self-breakthrough... One step at a time, along the way, Christopher can be described as It is solid and steady.

In less than 20 years, Christopher has gained countless fans around the world, and some even consider him to be the greatest contemporary director.

Of course, adjectives like "greatest" tend to irritate other veteran fans, and even provoke countless loyal fans who hate Christopher because of "greatest" is an issue with countless controversy, and it's obviously fashionable to discuss it now In the early days, only after the precipitation and erosion of time, and only after the test and tempering of the years, can excellence become classics and the top can become great.

Whether Christopher can be conferred a god is undoubtedly worth discussing and debating; but whether Christopher has become a cultural phenomenon is beyond doubt. For this generation of audiences, the impact and impact of the two works "Batman: The Dark Knight" and "Inception" are immeasurable.

Renly was no exception.

In fact, in Christopher's works, the director's style is the existence that overshadows everything, even actors like Christian Bale and Leonardo DiCaprio, they just stayed in the movie It's just a stylized outline, all the other highlights fall on the director--

Heath Ledger's Joker is a special case. The characters are a special case, the story is a special case, and the actors are also a special case. The three special cases just happened to collide, which created the most classic villain image of a comic book movie in film history, which has nothing to do with Christopher himself.

During the filming process, Christopher's habit is to set the frame and context of the character in advance, and make sure that the character can be integrated with the story, shots, and pictures, and other performance work is left to the actor himself, but he does not need extra performance from the actor. , just like drawing a dungeon as a prison, just rightly confined to the circle, this is enough.

Objectively speaking, Christopher still left a certain space for the actors to perform well; but the problem is that Christopher's editing and picture style are really too strong, and the story is the most important, and the audience often ignores the actor's performance. The importance is more often focused on the director's figure hidden behind the screen, so that whether the actor's performance is good or bad, there is not much impression.

In other words, Christopher is not a director who is good at shooting actors and tuning/teaching actors. It can only be said that he is a director who knows how to use actors.

Still, there are countless actors who want to work with Christopher. Not for performance, but for the director's unrestrained imagination, truly bringing out the charm of the movie to the extreme——

Whether it's "The Dark Knight" or "Inception",

Or "Memento" and "Deadly Magic", Christopher uses the art of editing and lens to construct an illusory and real movie time, which implicitly implies the director's thinking and exploration of philosophy and life, bringing a completely different A different viewing experience.

This is indeed very rare.

Therefore, the opportunity to work with Christopher is another charm of the actor's work.

Is Christopher Nolan Renly's favorite director? Maybe not; but is Christopher Nolan one of Renly's favorite directors? There is no doubt about this.

If given the chance, Renly would also like to star in Christopher's works, "The Dark Knight", "Inception" and "Dunkirk" can be regarded as the top three of Renly's personal favorite director works. Once, Renly was embarrassed because he regretfully missed "Inception".

Unexpectedly, the name "Christopher Nolan" came out of Andy's mouth.

"Wow, are you serious?" Renly didn't hide his joy and joy at all, and his words were full of excitement.

Instead, Andy remained calm, deliberately lowered his voice and said, "'Nightcrawler' and Nolan, which of these two works would you prefer?"

It was just a hypothetical question, but Renly pondered for a moment, "Nolan." Andy was surprised by the answer, "Remember what I told you before? I wanted to challenge some lighter and more different roles. ."

"Yes, I remember, you are even willing to challenge a role as a vase." Andy nodded lightly.

"That's what it means." Renly continued, "The script and characters of 'Nightcrawler' are undoubtedly fatal, and this is the most exciting opportunity to perform after 'Love Crazy'; but now , I hope to challenge some characters that overthrow myself, it can be a dark role of the villain, or it can be a light comedy role, Nolan's film is a more suitable choice."

Andy suddenly realized. Ultimately, it's still a matter of timing, and the influence of "Boom Drummer" is now more and more evident in Renly.

"However, the reason why it is called a killer is not because of the name Christopher Nolan, but because everything has not been determined for the time being." Andy continued, "The whole plan is still in the early stage of preparation, my hand There was no script, no project proposal, everything was uncertain, I just spoke to Christopher once, that's all."

Renly didn't rush in, but listened patiently.

Andy went on to explain.

The film project dates back to 2007, when famed astrophysicist Kip-Thorne and producer Lynda-Obst discussed making a movie about black holes And the wormhole movie, the basic theory of the whole story is constructed.

Kip is a Feynman Professor of Theoretical Physics at the California Institute of Technology. As one of the most outstanding scientists in the field of black holes and general relativity, he has long-term relationships with Stephen Hawking and Carl Sagan. There is an intuitive example of his status in the industry. In the film "The Theory of Everything", one of the three mentors who judged whether Hawking's doctoral thesis passed or not was Kip Thorne.

In 2017, Kip-Thorn won the Nobel Prize in Physics.

The film project was established under the conception of Kip. The original intention was to explain the complex concept of relativity to the public. This is also the goal he has always hoped to achieve during his tenure at Caltech - to promote science to more ordinary people. The public, encourage more people to invest in scientific research.

At that time, Linda Obst found Steven Spielberg, and Steven showed great interest. He found Jonathan Nolan (jonathan-) to write the script. At that time, Jonathan had already successively After writing the two scripts for "Memento" and "Deadly Magic", and after completing the script for "The Dark Knight", he began to prepare for Steven's project.

Going around in circles, the project never made a breakthrough, because Kip wanted the entire story to be based on real and scientific theories.

Kip emphasized that all the theories of celestial bodies, physical theories and the phenomena they guide in the film must conform to science, which not only created many difficulties for Jonathan's script creation, but also proposed countless ideas for filming. problem. This reminds people of the work "Gravity". Without sufficient technical support, the film is impossible to make, and the same is true for this project.

Ultimately, Steven dropped out of the project, and Christopher, who had just finished filming the "Batman" trilogy, took over.

After taking over, Christopher came to Caltech to seek help from Kip. It took six months before and after, first class, then discussion, and finally writing the script. After all the theoretical knowledge structures were really built, the Nolan brothers this Only finished writing the final version of the script, which was a far cry from the original version in 2007.

In any case, the script is finally complete, the technology seems to have reached the corresponding height, everything is ready, and it seems that it can be shot now; but problems also arise, and Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures parted ways.

As mentioned before, Christopher Nolan is a direct-line director excavated by Jeff Robinoff; moreover, all his works with Warner Bros. are handled by Thomas Tour.

Now, Robinoff is forced to leave, and Thomas is cooperating with Universal Pictures, which also puts Christopher in a predicament-

Should he still work with Warner Bros.?

Now, this project is in a chaotic situation, and it seems that there is no way to sort out the ideas in a short time. Andy and Christopher had a conversation and mentioned the possibility of Renly joining. Christopher expressed great interest. , but, that's all, nothing is fixed, because Christopher himself has no way of being completely sure.
