Here is my entry for the Triple AAA contest --> FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION (#01): "Favorite Directors" You guys should check it out and participate

Director of week #4: Christopher Nolan

For this last week of the contest of great directors I decided to choose who I consider in these moments as the most creative and different director of all those who make life in Hollywood, a total visionary who always gives a touch of impact to his films through plot and especially artistic twists that make his films true symphonies that rarely compare to other productions, I'm obviously talking about Christopher Nolan, someone I have ranked among the top 5 directors in the industry, a man who has given us memorable sagas and individual films that surely neither I nor you will be able to forget in years to come. Christopher Nolan has shown with his films to be able to create all kinds of different atmospheres from magical stories told with incredible plot twists, films that have been able to generate great sensations in viewers like me who are not just looking for something to entertain them for a short time, but rather manage to penetrate and stay in our minds for a long time, and undoubtedly one of the films that most generated that feeling of astonishment, confusion and charm was Interstellar, a film created as an opera to generate dozens of emotions in anyone who sees it, a film complicated but wonderful at the same time.

Like most of Nolan's films, Interstellar is not an easy film to digest and assimilate because it has many complicated elements that jump during the development of the plot, elements that we will have to see very careful not to lose the plot thread and especially not to confuse us with the general chronology of the film, something that sincerely is not easy to decipher, I know, a film so complicated generally does not stand out much however this one does it for the wonderful photography that it uses to give life to an extraordinary story.

In this film we find a planet Earth-facing its imminent extinction, a planet that for different reasons is suffering a tremendous deterioration that constantly attacks the inhabitants making their lives more complicated; In short, Interstellar presents us with a world on the verge of ending and a group of people trying to find ways to save humanity by looking for other planets where colonies can be established in order to save a large part of humanity. However, this apparent search to colonize other planets ends up being a pantomime used by the person in charge of the space program to convince an outstanding engineer and family man to abandon his family and embark on this search for a new home for humanity. The film basically presents us with two stories that little by little get closer to intertwine and become one at the end of the film.

On the one hand we have a group of experts in different branches of science aboard a spacecraft visiting several prospects of planets where they can establish a human colony, and on the other hand the family of our engineer (Matthew McConaughey) moving forward without his father, with the remarkable contrast and importance that this man's daughter represents for the final plot of the film, yes, Matthew McConaughey's daughter in the film will be that element that we will have to look at very closely and watch very closely throughout the film because of the immense importance it will have to close the whole main plot of the film.

What really stands out about this film I don't consider to be its plot, because as I was saying, it is something difficult to assimilate, especially if you only saw it looking for something light and entertaining, yes, there is nothing light about this film. This is a film that reminded me a lot of those old musical movies that filled us and made us shudder for the incredible quality of photography, music, and cinematography that they managed to build throughout the film. Interstellar is an adult film that takes space travel to an insurmountable level, a film that throughout its development builds an epic atmosphere that never stops and simply traps us through visual and musical elements that make the entire film something comparable to a symphony, yes, a symphony of visual and sound elements that give us something wonderful in sight, something we simply can not stop admiring.

For me Interstellar is not a film that everyone can or will enjoy, since it is not the typical space travel film where we see scenes take place normally without any incidence in the plot, in this film even the smallest element contributes something to the plot and we see it reflected notably in the plot change that the characters receive. Without a doubt, this is one of my favorite films, a film that although I may not be able to understand at the first attempt, I equally enjoy all the things that it gives us and that makes it different from any other film, something typical of Nolan but which never ceases to amaze.
