Re: Team Red, Team Blue - faith in Tenet (spoilers)

Re: Metaphorical language of C. Nolan

Watching Tenet 2 times (though, one was in Ukrainian and the other - in original with no English subtitles, so most of spelled metaphors I have missed due to distortion or mishearing) I have gathered the following: "People in the future" and "future" in the context of the movie, as I understand, mus...

Metaphorical language of C. Nolan

Understanding even the on the surface plot of Nolan's movies is usually a challenge, not to mention what is hidden below.

Re: Trailer #3

Interesting that the 3 films listed were TDK Trilogy, Inception, and Dunkirk. But no Interstellar. I would have either listed all 4, or switched out Dunkirk for Interstellar I think, these movies are the closest in terms of context - BB, TDK (international terrorism), TDKR (left-wing revolution), I...
