Christopher Nolans Next Movie Risks Ruining An Iconic 56-Year-Old Mystery

Although Christopher Nolan‘s next movie has the potential to be a great remake, the directors love of intricate worldbuilding may ironically work against him in this instance. Christopher Nolans movies are nothing if not perfectly crafted. Nolan’s best and worst movies all run like clockwork, with their twisty plots becoming clearer as the story progresses. The directors breakout hit Memento infamously told its tale backward, an ingenious twist that reinvented the tired whodunit formula. Since then, hits like Inception, Interstellar, and The Prestige all succeeded in making their complex, labyrinthine stories accessible for a mainstream audience.
