"To be an artist, you don't just study the art you specialize in, but you study different arts from different perspectives"

One of my favourite directors talks about his opinions on my favourite artist...well what could be better.

Really fascinating to see what inspires Christopher Nolan. Francis Bacon seems like a rather unique I guess I'll try and research him more.

It may be an assumption, but I think that the inspiration for the Inception was Jacob's Ladder, which also used Bacon's paintings for its monster designs.

the inscrutable attention this man has to even individual elements of action films is pretty remarkable; comparing him to most other action film directors (e.g. michael bay) just shows how impressive he is as a film-making talent

Not only Joker but IMO Chris Nolan have given us most of the best Villains in Superhero movie genre i.e. Harvey 'Two-face' Dent, Dr. Jonathan Lane aka Scarecrow & lastly Bane. That's why lately I've made a tribute video for the Best Villains in Superhero movies (including Nolan's Batman's villains with Magneto [1st class] & Loki!), using Imagine Dragon's IT'S WHERE MY DEMONS HIDE in the background. Please check my channel for it.

The last shot of the clown figure looks (obviously) immensly similar to the Heath Ledger joker. I would have loved to hear a few words on the relationship between that clown figure and the final design.

You don't need to use oils to achieve texture or "thickness"! Today, there are MANY acrylic mediums (Golden Light Molding paste ROCKS! Texture galore and SUPER lightweight). Nearly any texture or sheen you can imagine can be had with acrylic additives, saving a fortune on pricey paints. I start with acrylics, for weird brights you cannot get with oils (linseed oil dulls). After the acrylic underpainting is completely dry - I pile on top the deep, rich, luminous tones that can only had with certain oils. There's plenty of color crossover but you can forget about getting the delicious depth of Alizarin Crimson oil with the "same" shade in acrylic. Not even close. You learn as you DO. But painters haven't needed to RELY on oils in decades, if it's thickness or texture they're after.

i think it would've been great if when he opened that book, there were literally just pictures of streaky bacon

Francis bacon is class

If Nolan directed a silent hill movie that would be amazing

This director can do almost anything. Inception was my favorite out of all his movies until he make more of course.

I also understand that the movie "Dude where's my car" was inspired by Chaucer!

Simply brilliant.

KING NOLAN IMMORTAL LORD GOD!! The smartest man alive

@@LeonardLuzon no. British is Scotland, England and Wales. UK is Scotland, England, Wales and northern Ireland. The Republic of Ireland is nothing to do with Britain. We fought a war in Ireland for 800 years against the British to retain our individual culture and identity. Bacon was born in Dublin, Ireland. He was Irish.

strange how nolan's "influences" never "influence" anything he does in any significant way.

In Tim Burton's 1989 Batman, Joker prevented one of his goons from slashing a Francis Bacon piece when they were marauding the art gallery. "Not this one, I kinda like it." I wonder if that scene was the inception of this Bacon influence for Christopher Nolan? twitter.com/wdnky

Paprika > inception no contest

Is Christopher Nolan, Francis Bacon’s son ? What’s going on ... ?

So no mention of Lee Bermejo, who started working on the Joker graphic novel with Greg Rucka while Nolan and his team were still deciding what the Joker would look like in the next movie? Okay.

Nick Aldridge O.k. I mentioned it because the Joker drawn by Bermejo was, unless a HUGE coincidence happened, basically the visual template for the one seen in The Dark Knight. It goes beyond just the notion that previous versions had an influence here and there. Since in the interview Nolan mostly addressed the visual side of the creation I was taken aback by how Bermejo wasn't even mentioned in passing. (Especially considering how the uninformed bash the artist by saying he ripped off the Dark Knight look, which makes it even worse.) In any case and regarding what concerns you, this video was very well done and had good transitions, congrats.

you as an audience have the right to claim you don't see them related. but you don't get to claim that as a fact. and a mainstream director needs your permission to be interested about and inspired from a great artist? why do you think you people are gate keepers of "true art"? annoying

So this guy needed a painting to actually come up with the idea to make The Joker more realistic by smudging his make-up and giving him actual scars? That's a really pretentious curve.

And when you’re doing something, you don’t always take every work in existence into consideration to do your projects because that’s even maybe impossible. Some things are just coincidences. Have you read about multiple discovery? You should.
