Rome Press Conference (B3 talk, also)

[movieman1005]

Just happened yesterday. Lots of interesting (and new) questions.
Also for those of you who need B3 news in order to survive the next few months, Mr. Nolan does in fact give you some info. ON CAMERA in the beginning of part 1.

This must be quite recent no?

I'm guessing it's for the Inception Italy release this week.

Very interesting, thanks a lot!

Check this out:

Q: Is there any parallelism between the Inception plot and your job as a director?

Nolan: I think that when I was writing the script, I tried to make the process of the way the team assembles dreams, the way they create dreams, I tried to make it as real of a feeling, as grounded as possible. So for me, I guess it naturally gravitated towards the process that I know. Which is putting together a team of film makers and going around the world looking at things and figuring out how we can fool an audience with tricks and these things. I didn't set out to make a film about film making, but I think when I look at it now quite clearly it is about film making, it is about that process.

I'm starting to think his claims of being a bit of a Luddite about technology are all just BS and he's probably lurking on here right now, chuckling at our posts.

This is great! I think this is the first time Nolan ever admits that his films are actually about film making in some aspect!
