Hey, all! Our Trilogy Series wraps up with an incredible, influential set of movies--Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy.

On this episode of Remainders we watch the 2002 movie Insomnia. The only movie in Christoher Nolan's filmography in which he doesn't have a writing credit, Insomnia has always felt like an outlier in the director's career. It's most notable aspect was Robin Williams and his villainous role as Finch, a first for Williams. Playing opposite the most strung out possible version of Al Pacino, we see if this thriller holds up.Other topics include Nolan's ranking, follow-up on our Mad Max Fury Road episode, fake reviews for Insomnia, Black Mirror, Andor and Star Wars, the passing of the alligator from Happy Gilmore, Hillary Swank, more Pacino marathon's coming up, and whether or not Nicky Katt has the best line in any Nolan movie.Songs of the WeekThe Swimming Song by Loudon Wainwright IIIIf I Could Only Fly by Blaze FoleyRemainders Jukebox PlaylistWebsiteFacebookInstagramYouTubeTwitter

On this episode of the podcast, host Dr Pasquale Iannone is joined by MSc Film Studies student Lauren Thompson to discuss one of the most critically acclaimed and influential films of all time. Andrei Tarkovsky's fourth feature Mirror (1975) weaves together moments in the life of dying poet in a bold, non-linear style. It's a deeply personal cinematic poem about memory, history and family, and 2025 marks its 50th anniversary.Lauren and Pasquale begin by offering their thoughts on Tarkovsky's work more broadly and then they turn to an extended discussion of Mirror, covering elements such as the use of editing and voiceover. The discussion rounds off with a consideration of the film's influence on successive generations of filmmakers, from Christopher Nolan to Claire Denis.

Il film è stato candidato ai Premi Oscar 2002 come migliore sceneggiatura originale e miglior montaggio.La tagline del film è “«Ricordati di non dimenticare.»”Il film di questa puntata è “MEMENTO” di Christopher Nolan.Grazie a Lucia Pareti (Curiosità), Mariangela Ungaro (Cinema d'ascolto), Fernanda Cherubini (cast), Giulio Tiezzi (Critica), Marco Pieroni (storytelling).

Missing Frames reaches another milestone: EPISODE 150! And another milestone episode means that Brad Gullickson is back in the guest seat watching one of Shawn's favorite movies for the very first time: master filmmaker Satoshi Kon's final film PAPRIKA. Shawn and Brad discuss the film's brilliance, its beauty, its heart, and its all-around bonkers story (which Christopher Nolan more than likely snagged some inspiration from for his 2010 film Inception). They also chat about Satoshi Kon's legacy as a filmmaker and what makes Paprika such a special entry in his brilliant filmography.HOSTSShawn EastridgeBrad Gullickson

Welcome to the hardboiled streets of 90s Chicago where a crime wave is at an all time high. It's up to you, officer Don Marshall, and you, Unnamed Female, to fight crime with as many bullets as possible. Then travel to the Wild West to also fight crime with as many bullets as possible. This is Konami's Lethal Enforcers arcade series. How was a knee-burning, motion-sensing game responsible for adding another arcade to the Lethal Enforcers family? Do you know all the words to the Hey Dude theme song? Is the Justifier the best possible name for a light gun peripheral? Was this game an inspiration for a certain scene in Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight? We are asked what our favorite gun design is from arcade light guns (and our least favorite) and perhaps the question that Rob has been waiting his entire life to answer: who would win in the ultimate showdown between Aliens versus Predator versus RoboCop versus Terminator.

In 2005, filmmaker Christopher Nolan was about to become mainstream with the first movie in his superhero trilogy. Meanwhile, a group of developers in Derby were working on a video game tie-in for said movie that wouldn't turn out to be quite as popular. We're taking a look at an action adventure game that was neither a precursor to a game based on The Dark Knight, nor The Dark Knight Returns. We're talking Batman Begins.On this episode of Stealth Boom Boom, we chat a little bit about trailers that feature Batman smiling, Trailer Voice Man, and Phoenix International. We also look at how important it was for this to be an interactive version of the movie in almost every way, as well as a cavalcade of celebs: a disinterested Morgan Freeman, a bloodthirsty Cillian Murphy, anbemused Michael Caine, and a Christian Bale that thinks all this video game stuff is a complete waste of time.Here are some of the things you're gonna hear us chat about in our review: the first glimpses of many things that would become staples in the Arkham games; instilling fear in your enemies by interacting with very specific parts of the environment; goons dropping their guns when they're scared; the optic cable from Splinter Cell; an exceptionally violent inverted takedown; familiar punching and kicking, as performed by a more acrobatic, yet less fluid Batman; the weird context-sensitive special move thing; NO BATARANG BUSINESS; climbing things with 70% arm and 30% leg; bonus Game Boy Advance opinions; a lack of yellow paint; training in the Himalayas; driving the tumbler around Gotham like it's a Burnout game; dingy rooms illuminated by beams of light coming through blinds; restrictions vs limitations; being rewarded(?) with clips from the film in between levels; odd differences in the narrative; Gary Oldman's absence; and a lockpicking minigame that's the same every single time.After all that, we take you through what some of the critics were saying about the game around the time it came out, and then we give you our final verdicts on whether Batman Begins is a Pass, a Play, or an Espionage Explosion.For those who would like to play along at home, we'll be discussing, reviewing and dissecting Deus Ex on the next episode of Stealth Boom Boom.IMPORTANT LINKS TO THINGS

Who better to wrap the season finale with than Christopher Nolan? But it would be too easy to go for Tenet or Inception, we're going back to where things all began, with his very first film.

Hollywood writer and producer David Goyer — known for “Blade,” “Foundation” and his writing on Christopher Nolan's “The Dark Knight” Trilogy — explores new formats of storytelling that are bridging the gap between AI and traditional entertainment through his latest franchise project "Emergence" and the AI-powered platform Incention, powered by the Story blockchain. Live from NAB Show in Las Vegas, in conversation with Reel AI columnist and producer Erik Barmack (plus a lively audience Q&A), Goyer unpacks how technological and narrative innovation can activate fandoms and transform traditional IP structures to reach new audiences everywhere. The self-described "tech-adjacent" creative describes his experiment with AI in part as a mission to "build some guardrails and some use cases that aid the creator." Learn more about your ad choices.

Send us a textFrom accidentally stealing the spotlight on David Letterman's show as a teenager to voicing beloved animated characters for two decades, James Urbaniak's acting journey reads like a masterclass in versatility and perseverance. In this wide-ranging conversation, Urbaniak reveals the unexpected path that took him from New Jersey community theater to New York's experimental off-off-Broadway scene in the late 1980s. With remarkable candor, he shares how challenging theatrical experiences—like performing a 75-minute solo monologue in "Tom Paine"—helped develop his craft before independent filmmaker Hal Hartley introduced him to the different demands of screen acting.Fans of Adult Swim's cult classic "The Venture Bros." will delight in Urbaniak's behind-the-scenes stories from his 20-year tenure voicing Dr. Rusty Venture and other characters. He recounts the surreal experience of having a makeup artist on the set of an HBO film tell him she was more excited to meet the voice of Dr. Venture than Al Pacino himself—a testament to the profound connection voice actors can forge with audiences.Urbaniak's philosophy of acting—describing himself as "a skeptic who likes to be surprised"—offers valuable insight into navigating the entertainment industry's inherent uncertainty. Whether discussing his brief but memorable appearance in Christopher Nolan's "Oppenheimer," his experience playing Robert Crumb in "American Splendor," or his current work on Apple TV+'s "Palm Royale," Urbaniak demonstrates why character actors are often the secret ingredient that elevates productions across all media.For aspiring actors, film buffs, animation fans, or anyone fascinated by the creative process, this conversation provides a rare glimpse into the life of a working actor who has successfully built a diverse career by embracing opportunities across multiple entertainment platforms.Support the show

Together, we dive deep into Nolan's career arc, unpacking how Interstellar stands out as his most spiritual and vulnerable film. Along the way, the group breaks down iconic performances by Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, and Matt Damon, and explores the movie's big ideas—grief, love, time, and legacy.

Sean and Amanda are joined by Van Lathan to unpack Ryan Coogler's highly anticipated vampire horror film, ‘Sinners.' They applaud the film for its originality and authenticity, debate whether or not this is Michael B. Jordan's best performance of his career, and unpack one of the film's most controversial and daring scenes by hypothesizing about whether its boldness will be well received (2:28). Then, Sean is joined by Ryan Coogler to explain why he felt like he needed to make this movie, the importance of shooting on film, and the advice Christopher Nolan gave him for shooting on IMAX film cameras (1:12:03).

Welcome to the DMF. I'm Justin Younts. In this video, I dive into the filmmakers who have inspired me the most throughout my journey in filmmaking. From Quentin Tarantino's unique storytelling style to Christopher Nolan's innovative techniques, I share my thoughts on what makes their work so impactful. Tarantino's use of violence as a stylistic choice and his chapter-based storytelling in films like 'Kill Bill' have always fascinated me. I appreciate how he keeps audiences guessing about how the chapters connect, creating a compelling narrative. Wes Anderson's attention to detail, especially in films like 'Asteroid City,' captivates me as well. I often find myself watching films on airplanes, fully immersed in the experience, and Anderson's work is no exception. His characters and storytelling approach resonate deeply with me. Then there's Christopher Nolan, who I admire for his ability to tell complex stories in a concise manner. His background in commercial advertising has shaped his storytelling skills, allowing him to convey powerful narratives in a short amount of time. I discuss how his films, like 'Interstellar,' explore profound themes of family and sacrifice, and how his commitment to practical effects enhances the viewing experience. I also touch on the importance of a strong script, as seen in shows like 'Westworld,' and how it can keep viewers engaged across multiple episodes. I reflect on the emotional depth of films like 'Interstellar' and 'Oppenheimer,' and how they leave a lasting impact on audiences. Join me as I explore these filmmakers' influences and share my passion for cinema. Whether you're a budding filmmaker or a film enthusiast, there's something to learn from these masters of storytelling.

2005 began the resurgence of the iconic Dark Knight film series that saw a decline in years past. The movie started a trilogy that was once known as the greatest trilogy based on a comic book at the time. We look back 20 years later to talk about the impact of Christopher Nolan's milestone film accomplishments and see how it holds up after two decades. PLUS: A recap of a very revealing Daredevil: Born Again.

Innovative filmmakers should always be given the opportunity to showcase their talents. This is what Memento (2000) delivers from an early Christopher Nolan. Born of an idea from his brother, the unique presentation aids to the confusion, mystery, and thriller elements of this film. It will make your brain hurt, but you will feel better afterwards.

Which filmmaker is better: Steven Spielberg or Christopher Nolan? X-Ray Vision co-hosts Jason Concepcion and Rosie Knight complete their debate trilogy with this cinematic clash. Jason argues that Spielberg redefined cinema by establishing the blueprint for the modern blockbusters that dominate summer releases. Rosie counters that Nolan also redefined cinema by taking that blockbuster blueprint and adding grittiness, seriousness, and severity, creating the first billion-dollar superhero movie. Will Ronald Young Jr.’s ruling give Rosie a series sweep or will Jason pull off his first PCDC victory?

In this episode, we're diving into a trio of "the"-titled features, starting with our Top 5 Definite Articles in film and TV, followed by a look at Steven Spielberg's semi-autobiographical drama The Fabelmans, and rounding off with the delightful antics of The Smurfs.Top 5 Definite Articles in Film and TV:The Godfather (1972) - A cinematic masterpiece that redefined the crime genre and gave us one of the most iconic characters in film history, Don Vito Corleone.The Dark Knight (2008) - Christopher Nolan's gritty take on Gotham's hero brought depth, realism, and a legendary performance from Heath Ledger as the Joker.The Office (2005-2013) - A sitcom that revolutionized mockumentary-style comedy and introduced the world to Michael Scott's awkward brilliance.The Thing (1982) - John Carpenter's chilling horror-thriller remains a benchmark for practical effects and paranoia-driven storytelling.The Matrix (1999) - A sci-fi classic that questioned reality and revolutionized action choreography with its "bullet time" visuals.Main Feature: The Fabelmans (2022) Directed by Steven Spielberg, The Fabelmans is a semi-autobiographical film that reflects on the legendary filmmaker's own life, capturing the wonder, complexity, and challenges of growing up in a family where art and reality often intersect. Gabriel LaBelle stars as Sammy Fabelman, a young boy enchanted by the power of cinema, with Michelle Williams and Paul Dano portraying his loving but imperfect parents.Set in the 1950s and 60s, the film chronicles Sammy's discovery of filmmaking and his growing passion amidst family tensions and personal dilemmas. Spielberg crafts a deeply personal story that explores how art can be an escape, a confrontation, and a way of understanding the world. With a blend of nostalgia and emotional depth, The Fabelmans showcases the director's love for the medium while delving into the challenges of family life. It's a celebration of creativity, dreamers, and the power of storytelling.The Smurfs For the little ones (and the young at heart), The Smurfs bring a mix of charm, humour, and life lessons. Originally created by Belgian cartoonist Peyo, the tiny blue characters have enchanted audiences for generations. The 1980s animated series and subsequent films follow Papa Smurf, Smurfette, Brainy, and their fellow Smurfs as they navigate the magical forest, often thwarting the evil plans of the bumbling wizard Gargamel and his cat Azrael.These pint-sized adventurers deliver plenty of laughs, but the stories often come with underlying messages about cooperation, kindness, and problem-solving. Whether through the classic cartoon or recent movies, The Smurfs remain a colorful and fun escape.This episode dives deep into the importance of the small things—whether it's a single word that gives a title its iconic flair, a passion for filmmaking that shapes a life, or little blue creatures teaching big lessons. Stay tuned for a blend of reflection, nostalgia, andWe love to hear from our listeners! By which I mean we tolerate it.

Spring is finally in the air, and, for New York City cinephiles, that means it's time for another edition of New Directors/New Films, the annual showcase for standout works by emerging filmmakers co-hosted by Film at Lincoln Center and the Museum of Modern Art. The festival is always a reliable sign of trends to come and talents to look out for—past editions have featured early films by Spike Lee, Christopher Nolan, and Kelly Reichardt, among others. This year's iteration opens tonight and runs through April 13. Over the past few years, Film Comment has established our own annual tradition of previewing the best movies in the ND/NF lineup with some of our favorite critics. This time around, FC Editors Devika Girish and Clinton Krute invited Mark Asch and Natalia Keogan for a rundown of some of the gems in the 2025 edition, including Opening Night selection Familiar Touch (3:45); Mad Bills to Pay (or Destiny, dile que no soy malo) (18:55); Lost Chapters (28:41); Invention (37:06); Drowning Dry (45:45); Holy Electricity (53:52); and more.
