It’s Leaving Netflix Soon: Heard About This Spy Movie? According to his director, this is completely normal!

Christopher Nolan is a master of timing, illusion and manipulation. A virtuoso behind the camera and a virtuoso in his writing, the director loves to shake up the audience. Make them think sometimes, but above all make them experience a unique cinematic adventure.

In 2020, he introduced Tenet to the audience, which he presented as an international espionage film in which the characters of John David Washington and Robert Pattinson must prevent the start of World War III. But there’s always a little twist with Nolan… our two heroes have to stop a man (Bran) who has a machine that can go back in time.

Among the film’s spectacular scenes (and there are many of them), we can see cars racing backwards, bullets going backwards in time, fighting scenes going backwards, etc. On the script side, it’s a bit more complicated.

Tenet is the kind of movie you watch several times because you didn’t understand anything the first time you watched it and you want to understand all the subtleties. Which is really not necessary, in the words of its director:

“You don’t have to understand everything in Tenet, not everything is clear.”he had It was announced here. “If you experience my film as an experience, then you understand. I believe in that very much. I feel like in the past when people were disappointed with my storytelling, sometimes they went the other way. It’s not a puzzle. A layout, but a life experience, preferably in cinema, but Also at home.”

Unintelligible “key to understanding”

Armed with only one word – Tenet – and determined to fight to save the world, our hero journeys into the twilight world of international espionage. His mission projects him into a dimension that transcends time. However, it’s not about time travel, it’s about a temporary reversal…

This is the synopsis of Tenet and the source of frustration for many viewers. In his film, Christopher Nolan implements what we call entropy. Key to understanding for some and very scientific jargon for others. site Wikipedia Describes this term introduced in 1865 “The level of disorganization or unpredictability of the information content of the system.”

In Tenet, the director uses this to disorganize the world and our system: how would our lives work if we could go back in time? In this way, people could walk backwards and forwards, everyone could shape it as they wanted. If this “theory” is more complex than presented here, it is what lies at the heart of the feature film.

But as its director says, don’t try to understand and enjoy the show! You only have one week left to do so, as Tenet is leaving Netflix on August 26th.
