What if it was Christopher Nolan’s most personal film? In 2017, the English film director published Duncirk, inspired by the dynamics of the operation, in which tens of thousands of soldiers were evacuated to the Duncirk coast before the German troops came.
Compiled from a real episode of ‘story
A memorable episode of World War II that Christopher Nolan wanted to be screened since his student years. But the importance of the story has long been convinced to wait until the right time to adapt to this story. Thus, only after a large scale films were filmed, for example, his batman and intersellar trilogy, the director estimated that he was ready to produce such a film.
For Nolan, Dunkirk is not a war film, but a thriller that is focused on the survival of these soldiers. The feature film consists of three stories, each of which is based on different chronologies (one week, day and hour). The filmmaker gathered at his favorite actors, especially Cylian Murphy and Tom Hardy, as well as Michael Kane in a short vocal kamo.
Christopher Nolan twice broke the same cash register record
With the support of $ 100 million, Duncki has received critical and commercial success as soon as it came out in theaters. In the box office, more than $ 530 million, the film has become the greatest success for the feature film of all time, which deals with World War II, after … Oppenheimer, who also has Christopher Nolan.
Overall, historians have been seen as a very convincing reconstruction of the dynamics of the operation. However, experts have regretted that French soldiers were transferred to the film and, in general, criticized the lack of diversity between the English troops.
However, these confrontations did not reduce the reputation of the film, which was awarded 3 Oscars, including the Best Assembly. Best Director was appointed for the prize, Christopher Nolan had to expect a prestigious award (for Oppenheimer, decided …) by 2023.
Dunkirk, directed by Christopher Nolan, will no longer be available at Prime Video since September 29.
