I’m not sure I’ll ever get over Ledger in this movie. Few “big” performances since have even come close to the level of immersion he got to here.
It’s the hair, the makeup, and the posture, but what sells it most for me is that damn voice.
How does an Australian make himself sound like that? What the hell did he even hear that set him on the course to get there? And how does he make it work so…

I full on sobbed in seat F12 of the IMAX theater at AMC Lincoln Square this morning.
This movie is an absolute masterwork in every sense, and the 70mm IMAX format made this a once-in-a-lifetime audio/visual experience that’s right up there with seeing U2 at Sphere.
I never feel more alive than when art is able to move me the way this does.
Chris Nolan undefeated.

Literally was doing the Rick Dalton pointing thing the entire time. LA… see you again someday.

Noticed on this watch that the expressions on the actors faces (that being the briefest flash of a smile) and framing is the same as Chris approaches the getaway car, and Neil sees Eady waiting for him, believing the job is done.
Great movie.

I understand why Yates gets so much shit, but the way he streamlines the stories of the later movies is honestly pretty impressive. Yeah, a lot of cool stuff got cut, but for the most part he totally maximizes the dramatic impact of what’s there. Half Blood Prince’s omissions from the book should annoy me much much much more than they do, and the fact I like this a great deal is a testament to his skill as a director.…

Montage is one of the most powerful tools in filmmaking.

Cuaron directs this thing like its the last movie he’ll ever make. It’s too bad the story doesn’t live up to his effort.
I firmly believe that time travel doesn’t belong in the fantasy genre.

A masterclass of economy in storytelling.
