    What’s even more tragic about their time on the wave planet is that even if Brandt managed to get the data from the last expedition it would have been worthless. Because of the powerful time dilation, Miller and her ship had only been on the planet for a few minutes by the time the Ranger arrives, not long enough to collect any usable data. In fact, the swell that they see moving away from them is probably the one that killed her.

    ​​@@ElizacocoWe can only say that because hindsight is 20/20 Miller had no idea that it was a super massive wave ... she probably thought it was mountains just as the ones after her did and by the time she realised the danger it was, too, late and she was wiped out. She got excited that there was water, and thought that the planet was a viable candidate for humanity. Remember the main crew only barely made it out by the skin of their teeth and lost one of their own during the wave.

    This video made me think of how Hans Zimmer was told to write the score for this movie. Nolan didn’t initially give him a synopsis or breakdown of the plot. Instead he described to him the emotional turmoil of the relationship between a father and daughter as depicted in the story and had Zimmer take inspiration from that.

    As a father of two girls myself, I can 100% guarantee I'd be crying even worse than he did. People shouldn't make fun of it, it's not something they have even imagined. I have, and the weight of the pain of regret and damaging the irreplaceable strings of relationships, coupled with the desperation of wanting to fix it when you have no power to do so... being at the mercy of the fate that lies outside your control, propagated by your own choices, makes you feel the strongest guilt, shame, and self hatred you will ever experience. I can tell you exactly what he was thinking. "I will never see her smile again. I'll never see her eyes light up when I walk into the room, I'll never hear her call me daddy, I'll never feel those tiny arms wrapped around my neck in an embrace of safety and trust... I'll never see my baby girl again." People who make fun of a father over the loss of his children, physically or spiritually, _DON'T_ know that pain.

I think that acclaimed masterpieces such as Everything Everywhere All At Once would have been mercilessly shat upon by internet pseudointellectuals ten years ago.

    Definitely. There is comedy in cynicism and over exaggeration but we need to to be careful to not let that bleed into our perceptions of all movies. I’m reminded of Cinema Sins- they claim to be satire but their fans sure do take every “sin” or “error” for gospel, and I don’t want to imagine what they feel, or the lack thereof, watching movies with that mindset.

    I hardcore disagree about interstellar being a bad allegory for climate change. Actually I disgree with that being a negative of the film. Climate change, and more importantly human's part in it has very little to do with the narrative. The movie explores themes of love, and reality (my struggle to meaningfully identify themes beyond a very basic level is 100% an issue with this film and tbh Nolan's film as a whole). Anways I would agree it is a bad allegory but how does that affect the narrative. Human kind causing the blight vs not causing it doesnt change the narrative or the meaning of it whatsoever.

    Coming back to this because it haunts my brain: I see Nolan as a modern fable author or storyteller. Take the hare and the tortoise, which is probably the most famous. We're told in a cheeky way that the tortoise still wants to race and despite the obvious, that we should disregard him, we keep checking back in with the tortoise and seeing his progress as the hare is lazy. The foreshadowing doesn't undercut the message - those stories are intended to impart the lesson so obviously the information is structured to do that. It would be weird to be like, "god why are we focused on the tortoise isn't that just a little pat and expected?" Because... yes, it is. It is expected because fables are a self contained lesson. Because why would someone tell you a story with attention to specific parts unless they cared that you noticed them? A lot of screenplays and movies seem to suffer analysis around an idea of forced realism or a responsibility to be believable. I don't go to movies to see reality; that would be boring. I really appreciate a whole story.

    This video essay is sublime, beautiful, and perfect, just like its subject matter. You get everything that the film is trying to do and replicate exactly the feeling it gave me when I first watched it a year ago. When this film first came out, I was 14 years old, deeply cynical and skeptical, above any kind of sappy storytelling and perhaps even a bit personally distrustful of writers who prioritized feeling over "logic". I think if I had seen this film back then, I would have mocked it and insulted it just for the sake of feeling smart; now I realize, as you seem to, that this is an immature and defensive attitude that stops us from connecting to and understanding other people, and ourselves, through stories - and why else do we write stories in the first place? I'm trying in earnest to be a writer right now, and working slowly on a novel (this isn't a self-plug of any kind, just some context) and it's content like this that helps me contextualize my feelings about stories, dig into what I find important about narratives and how I have to tell them. I think you touched on the vulnerability of writing and of listening to stories perfectly in part IV; there's a part of us that wants to resist being too honest with ourselves about our emotions, and treat stories as some kind of calculative process, like how Mann tries to cover up the guilt he's feeling with stories about biological instincts. It's really a difficult thing to give oneself over completely to *feeling* a story, because it means accepting whatever part of yourself the story truly speaks to rather than trying to fight it, and I think the same goes for writing a story. I hope every day that myself and all other aspiring writers can find the courage to write and experience stories as they come to us, not how we *think* they ought to be. Anyway, I hope you got something out of this comment; your devotion to storytelling just made me want to spill my thoughts out here.

    incredible video. you might have seen the one from I believe Thomas Flight on metamodernism ? like him I believe we have entered an era of newfound sincerity in art production and consumption and I am so so here for it. The cinemasins, ultra rationalist brainrot damaged the way millions of people have experienced movies in the past 10-15 years and it makes me so sad. But attitudes evolve and EEAA and its success were a great example of that. I think we've started as audiences to be a bit less concerned with heartfeltness and oversentimentaly as negatives in stories. I think we can observe the gears shifting and the public opinion moving towards a more poetic and compassionate look on everything and that's wonderful. Thankyou for your video you captured those ideas wonderfully. Nolan was pretty hurt by the reception of Tenet and I think Oppenheimer and the messaging he had about that movie is really much a response to the way Tenet was perceived. He's a feelings' man contrary to what people try to put on him and I believe there are multiple lines in Openheimer that are in direct response to his detractors I need to get my hands on a copy of the film to look at it more closely.. maybe I'll write an addendum to this comment. anyway thanks again for your work.

Interstellar's stunning score and cinematography pick me up and sweep me along through an emotional journey. It's not about the story as such, it's about the feelings the movie evokes in you Hans Zimmer's score is probably the greatets strength of this movie, along with the masterful use of silence in suspenseful scenes give sgoosebumps every time. The soundscaping and the stunning visuals mesh together to create something truly beautiful. The first time I watched this movie I was swept up by it, my heart was in my throat and I just felt.

    In act 4 the movie cleverly uses what we can already extrapolate hypothetically about the physics inside a black hole (beyond the threshold of its event horizon, to be precise). Here, the dimensions of space and time change places - time becomes space-like as in you can move back and forth and sideways in it, while space becomes time-like, as in you are always pulled along with space-time towards the singularity, which is now your unescapable future and destination. The beings who build the "artifact" which allows Cooper to communicate with Murph in the past clearly use these physics within the black hole, which is neat. On annother note: I will never understand how someone could watch and perceive a movie solely from an objective angle, only becoming involved in the logistics of plot and plausibility and logic. It is like exclusively using one of your senses to observe and explore the world. It is the antithesis of cinema and art in general.

    I have an issue with your framing of the "blight" as a poor allegory for human-induced climate change. There is a reason Nolan chose crops like corn and okra to highlight -- we HAVE real corollaries to this, specifically in monoculture farming. One notorious example is the banana. The ONLY commonly available species of banana in supermarkets everywhere is the Cavendish banana. All it will take is ONE strain of virus or fungus developing resistance to antibiotics and selective gene modification and we will forever lose the global crop to 'blight.' So, i do not think Nolan was reaching at all implying that near future humanity would be faced with the consequences of us permanently destroying Earth's biodiversity -- we already live the early effects of it.

    I always took the blight at face value because for these characters, it’s already here. It doesn’t matter why it happened. It’s just now something they have to deal with.

    I have a problem with a framing too but a different one. As far as I know nobody ever claimed it was an allegory for climate change so it seems unreasonable to force it into that box and then complain that it doesn't meet all the criteria

    The blight was refreshing. Any modern theories of climate change brought on by humans would have been eye rolling. That’s why Nolan is amazing. It’s like he knows the top 100 eye roll issues of Hollywood and either avoids them or thinks of another take. TDKR was anti Occupy Wall Street, it was about villains who read too much Rules of Radicals. Oppenheimer wasn’t anti bombing Japan, it was anti making the bomb. Interstellar wasn’t anti human, it was pro adaption. Thank God for Nolan saving Hollywood.

    I have never watched a video that has made me feel like this one has. I have never watched a video that has made me contemplate like this one has. My father loved, and still loves, Interstellar and has claimed it is one of his favorite movies of all time. When I watched it with him as that young child I did not understand the weight of this film. But now, through this video, it has and it has made me realize something. Your quote about even if it doesn’t make sense at first through an objective lens, it might through a one of feeling, has touched me. I am a Christian, and I have struggled lately. And although you might not have meant it this way, and probably don’t agree with me, it makes me realize that although God and the Bible might never be able to be fully proven to everyone, and even if there was no evidence, the pure love He projects, that I and so many others feel, and the faith it takes to believe in Him is most important. For although something might not seem scientifically probable to some people, or even at first, love and faith that it does transcends that, and in the long run, are the most important things of all. Whether that be in a Christian sense like I explained, or a robot saying boarding a ship is impossible but faith that it would makes it possible.

    The thing that those who loose themselves in feelings and-the-things-that-were-actually-happening-at-the-moment are those who maybe get a resilient mind (adaptation, healing, experience over some past event). And the one who -we thought- was the main character… finds a way to engineer a leap of faith… and somehow it was the ying for his yang… the balance… The “That’s a polar bear”, also maybe just light traveling around time and space, also the most reliable navigation system (GPS), also a new checkpoint to go to… also a song… or that loved person who passed away. Every time I see Interstellar there’s a whole new world to see, discover and dream! Thank you for this great work! ✨
