Christopher Nolan

Christopher Nolan is creating some great and interesting ideas in the thriller film world, with his backwards filmmaking he uses revolutionary ideas to keep his audience in suspense and shock.

One of his most famous films is Memento is in non-chonological order, the entire film has been cut up into it's scenes and then plays the scenes one by one in reverse order. The story follows a man with amnesia trying to find who raped and murdered his wife, to remember important information he leaves himself mementos such as tattoos, notes and photographs. It is a good thriller because although it releases key information about the film at the beginning because it is the end in chronological order it still manages to create more mystery's.

He has also directed a trilogy of films known as 'The Dark Knight trilogy' these films follow the superhero Batman. The second film (The Dark Knight) and the third film (The Dark Knight Rises) have been very widely received. The Dark Knight is 8th on the IMDB top 250 films. Nolan has taken a new, darker approach to the Batman series with Heath Ledger playing a psychotic portrayal of The Joker in the dark knight and Tom Hardy playing Bane in The Dark Knight Rises these villains are know known as some of the greatest villains in movie history.
