It's difficult to keep anything fresh for an audience these days. With technology being what it is people seem to know everything there is to know about a film before you've even made it.

More quotes by Christopher Nolan
Well, you always discover a lot in the editing room. Particularly the action, because you have to over-shoot a lot and shoot an enormous amount of material because many of the sequences have to be discovered in the editing and manipulation of it.
Christopher Nolan
Period films to me are very often alienating to the audience. There's very often a formality. A staunchy quality to them that comes from the misenscene. It also comes from the performances of the actors, because they're acting Victorian which really means that they're just acting the way they've seen previous actors act Victorian.
Christopher Nolan
I'm taking a bit of a wait-and-see attitude towards 3D.
Christopher Nolan
Film is the best way to capture an image and project that image. It just is, hands down.
Christopher Nolan
It's always a fun collaboration with my brother. I'm very fortunate to be able to work with him. There's an honesty to collaboration. There's a lack of a gender or ego in our conversations. And so you can really throw anything around.
Christopher Nolan
My most enjoyable movie going experiences have always been going to a movie theater, sitting there and the lights go down and a film comes on the screen that you don't know everything about, and you don't know every plot turn and every character movement that's going to happen.
Christopher Nolan
To be honest, I don't enjoy watching movies much when I'm working. They tend to fall apart on me a bit.
Christopher Nolan
Superheroes fill a gap in the pop culture psyche, similar to the role of Greek mythology. There isn't really anything else that does the job in modern terms. For me, Batman is the one that can most clearly be taken seriously.
Christopher Nolan
I've been fascinated by dreams my whole life, since I was a kid, and I think the relationship between movies and dreams is something that's always interested me.
Christopher Nolan
I want to be surprised and entertained by a movie, so that's what we're trying to do for the audience. Obviously, we also have to sell the film.
Christopher Nolan
I made 'Batman' the way I made every other film, and I've done it to my own satisfaction - because the film, truly, is exactly the way I wanted it to be.
Christopher Nolan
I never considered myself a lucky person. I'm the most extraordinary pessimist. I truly am.
Christopher Nolan
George Lazenby is no one's favorite James Bond, but for me the anonymity at the center of this lavish production only serves to reveal the Bond machine firing on all cylinders: superb editing and photography, incredible score, great setpieces. The most romantic in the series, and it actually has, of all things, a tragic ending.
Christopher Nolan
The only job that was ever of interest to me other than filmmaking is architecture.
Christopher Nolan
In Hollywood there's a great openness, almost a voracious appetite for new people. In England there's a great suspicion of the new. In cultural terms, that can be a good thing, but when you're trying to break into the film industry, it's definitely a bad thing.
Christopher Nolan
I don't particularly enjoy watching films in 3D because I think that a well-shot and well-projected film has a very three-dimensional quality to it, so I'm somewhat sceptical of the technology.
Christopher Nolan
I would never say someone's else's film isn't 'a real film.' The quote is inaccurate.
Christopher Nolan
I have to believe that when my eyes are closed, the world's still there. (Leonard Shelby, Memento)
Christopher Nolan
Memory can change the shape of a room it can change the color of a car. And memories can be distorted. They're just an interpretation, they're not a record, and they're irrelevant if you have the facts. (Leonard Shelby, Memento)
Christopher Nolan
A camera is a camera, a shot is a shot, how you tell the story is the main thing.
Christopher Nolan
