Disco Stu 15,495 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Yes, a director who is very famous for bloated self-indulgence making a film well under 2 hours is very significant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Very, actually. Of this is indeed a film with a low amount of dialogue and an efficient running time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrbellamy 6,285 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Yeah, I just find it encouraging insofar as it's another indication - along with him name-dropping Bresson in that earlier interview - that he might be trying to say more with less.

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Has Nolan ever put out alternate cuts of his films before? He's never had less than full creative control to my knowledge, so why would he have to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Its clear he has learned from his obvious failure of Interstellar to communicate to the audience. And he's addressed the glaring shortcomings his previous works have shown. Right, TGP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's apparently increasingly rare for directors to get final cut privilege at studios these days but I can't imagine Nolan hadn't secured it in his contract by Inception at the latest.

Like I said so many times before (why don't people listen to each other?), ever since the rise of the huge concrete multiplexes, theatrical film projection sucks in Belgium. As a result, I prefer to watch movies on my Plasma screen. I want color, sharpness and contrast! I think I deserve it! Though I admit I haven't checked out the local IMAX room for ages.

John 2,032 Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 For those who haven’t seen it, here’s a comparison video between the 2007 Blu-ray release of 2001 and the new Nolan “restoration”: It looks like they ran the film through a bad Instagram filter. If this is indeed how the “restored” version appears, I doubt Kubrick would approve of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holko 9,525 Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 Good fucking lord. Anyone who works on something like this should be forbidden to go near any old archived film strips again.

Jurassic Shark 12,067 Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 It's unrestored, not restored. The objective was to present the colors faithfully as they were in 1968 - not make them look like what you'd consider "normal" today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holko 9,525 Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 I very much doubt the 1968 colours were adhering to the very modern and ugly orange and teal colour scheme. Somehow the Kubrick-supervised Criterion transfer doesn't look like someone literally pissed all over it. Him being an infamous perfectionist who probably wouldn't change his mind at any whim of stupid modern trends, I think that says something.
