Interstellar
What happens now?
I’ve been sitting with the film for the last 20 minutes since getting home from my friends place and watching it at their place.
I surprisingly have only seen this film two times. When it first came out in 2014 with my friend Patrick in the IMAX theatre of our local theater. The second time was tonight. In the ten years that’s it’s taken me to watch this film twice. A lot has changed in the world. I’ve obviously grown 10 years older. Graduated high school and college, gotten a job and make a couple of films and inbetween that time some major life events have happened but we won’t get into that.
I believe this is Nolan’s best work. Not only on a directing level but on every single level imaginable. He’s doing something that is more important than I think we imagine today and what we could even imagine 10 years ago. He’s allow the human populace a chance to realize that love is the most important thing of all. Now it’s love of any kind whether that be from a family member or friend or even a person you haven’t talked to in a while but still care about. Love is the force of nature in this film and that’s what important. Love is all knowing and that’s why we need it most today.
I don’t know what Nolan’s original idea was for this film but it has made me love his work even more now than ever. This film will always be special to me no matter what and that right there is the true power of filmmaking and the true power of love.
