Christopher Nolan Deep-Dive

On this episode I take a dive into the work of celebrated filmmaker Christopher Nolan. I've always considered him to be one of my favorite directors - so I really enjoyed diving into his movies again for this episode. I start off by talking about Nolan's life and some fun facts I found (2:54). Then I try to identify what specifically defines Nolan's style as a filmmaker (9:56) and I end the episode with a definitive Aspiring Cinephile ranking of Nolan's filmography (21:45).
