When it came out, Christopher Nolan’s Tenet lost a lot of people. Quentin Tarantino was part of that first salvo of viewers and clearly didn’t understand everything about the film during his initial viewing.
Podcast guest ReelBlendThe Pulp Fiction director laughed at the host who asked him about the feature film, the short film:
“I must see him again. I must see him again”.
Remember that Tenet places his character in a dimension that transcends time and approaches the story from the angle of a temporal reversal concept.
Tarantino has already explained Indiewire That it took him three viewings to appreciate Dunkirk:
“I liked the movie, but the performance took the edge off the experience. I don’t think I felt any emotion. I was fascinated, but at the same time I didn’t really know what it was that drew me in… It wasn’t until the third time I saw it that I was able to see beyond the show and really get into it. character stories. Finally, I could see something through the trees.” .
Perhaps it took several viewings of Tarantino’s Tenet to unravel all the mysteries of Christopher Nolan’s film, which is undoubtedly one of the least understood of his career. There is also a replica: “Don’t try to figure it all out”Almost a message indicating that the feature film is primarily an experience.
The experience didn’t sit well with all AlloCiné viewers, with a 3,651/5, the second-lowest score in Nolan’s filmography, behind Insomniac (3,597/5). Bravely released in the midst of COVID and in theaters that were mostly closed, Tenet made 2.34 million admissions in France and $365.3 worldwide.
