Stephen Colbert sits down with “Oppenheimer” writer and director Christopher Nolan for a wide-ranging interview set in a very apropos location: Albert Einstein’s office at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, NJ. Watch as Stephen digs deep into Nolan’s stylistic choices in the film and fact-checks elements of his personal mystique, like his reputation for shunning smartphones.

  • "Interstellar" changed me. I know understand I can only perceive reality partially because of a brain that has evolved to operate only in 4 dimensions rather than more. There are no "good things" or "bad things" that happen to you. They are only "things" that you happen to perceive, because all possibilities are happening as well, just without your perception.

  • 4:56 - with all due respect to Mr Nolan, I think that saying that stylism risks taking people out of their experience of a movie is not only kinda wrongheaded, it's also at odds with some of the greatest works of cinema, including some of his own. I say this whenever the subject of stylism versus naturalism comes up, but the rise of naturalism and social realism was a direct response to the invention of the radio, phonograph and cinema; these new mediums created the conditions for real life, real sound and visuals could be recorded and displayed, so the theatrical arts shifted from melodrama and pantomime to a focus on verisimilitude, the imitation of reality, through stuff like the plays of Ibsen and O'Neill and the Stanislavki school of acting, which then informed Strasberg, Kazan and Adler's Method school. However, one of the primary criticisms of naturalism from way back in the day was that, rather than being a more 'real' version of life or one that would make audience's think about the world, the focus on replication of emotionality actually creates a more insidious and manipulative form of melodrama, where the audience is switching off their critical thinking and being carried along by the performances; naturalism isn't imitating reality but creating an illusion, a fabricated reality. This is also why whenever anyone talks about stylism as it pertains to say Wes Anderson, I feel that it is best described as Brechtian, because he uses the entirety of the filmmaking process to not only tell the story but to signpost the thematic elements he sees as important. Tl;dr - the kind of movies Nolan makes would be written off as mass-market pablum designed to make you turn your brain off by the Dadaists. Nothing wrong with that, per se, but it bears consideration.
