Nolan casting more PoC..

 

I'm glad he's at least trying something new :thinking: 

He's likely not deviating from his tendencies in the past at all and just casting based on who is right for the role, not box checking.

 

Edit: For the sake of honesty and so I don't get in shit for an alt account, this is JB33. I'm on a friend's phone - who happens to be Verrows - and wasn't even thinking when I posted that it's logged on to her account.

Was it not the complete opposite of the concept ?

 

The auteur theory, which was derived largely from Astruc’s elucidation of the concept of caméra-stylo (“camera-pen”), holds that the director, who oversees all audio and visual elements of the motion picture, is more to be considered the “author” of the movie than is the writer of the screenplay. In other words, such fundamental visual elements as camera placement, blocking, lighting, and scene length, rather than plot line, convey the message of the film. Supporters of the auteur theory further contend that the most cinematically successful films will bear the unmistakable personal stamp of the director.

 

Il est à noter que l'auteur du film ne doit pas nécessairement l'avoir écrit seul. Dès « Ali Baba et la « Politique des Auteurs », François Truffaut affirme que « en dépit de son scénario trituré par dix ou douze personnes, dix ou douze personnes de trop excepté Becker, Ali Baba est le film d'un auteur, un auteur parvenu à une maîtrise exceptionnelle, un auteur de film

 

Has for writer/director on Nolan level there is not many, George Lucas, Coppola,  Kubrick, Woody Allen, Nancy Meyers, Besson, Shyamalan, the Wachowski siblings, the Coens, JJ Abrams, James L Book, Peter Jackson, McQuarrie, George Miller, Crowe, etc.. all also got some success has Writer-Director, but Nolan level is quite an high bar.

 

Thanks for reminding me why I think the classic auteur theory is pretty damn questionable.

A part of it, the :  Supporters of the auteur theory further contend that the most cinematically successful films will bear the unmistakable personal stamp of the director", has been clearly "debunked" over time and was already on shaky ground considering the Gone With the Wind and Casablanca of the era.

 

Some extremist that had the idea that a movie with a unmistakable personal stamp of the director would always be better to those who did not, did not went to be the case at all (Some Micheal Bay and other auteur movies and not better than a Gone With the Wind or the Marvel entry).

 

It was a way to give credit to people working under the studio system making Hollywood studio big movies that some took it too far because of that.
