Viewing Notes

My rating went up after this amazing screening in pristine 70mm. After processing and following some of the discourse plus knowing how it plays out, I could focus on different aspects of the filmmaking. Really solidified that this is Nolan’s most accomplished work (taken from Ron’s remark on the way home). Not my favorite but certainly a near masterpiece of modern movies.

Also, that has to be David Strathairn!
