I think Dunkirk is the closest thing to big budget horror we will get from Nolan.
I still hope he tackles WWI someday, but perhaps later on.

The PG-13 thing he has going on may be fantastic for him and his handlers financially, but artistically they are extremely limited. The Prestige is the closest to breaking free of that burden.
In what way has it been limiting Nolan's work so far? On what basis do you say that Nolan, and what he wanted to achieve with his films, was limited in his creative choices by the PG-13 rating? I'm honestly baffled by this.Infidel wrote: ↑July 29th, 2018, 3:17 pmI want something devised for intelligent adults, the last film to be so being Memento.

Because his ideas cannot be justified without the need for a presentation of violence. Dunkirk was laughable in that sense. As was the dialogue, but that's another burden of his in which he cannot seem to shake. His dialogue peaked with Memento, and then became more insulting to the intelligence of the average man every film onwards.DHOPW42 wrote: ↑July 30th, 2018, 3:54 amIn what way has it been limiting Nolan's work so far?
