Every Christopher Nolan film ranked from worst to best
Interstellar (2014)
Influenced by what Nolan described as the “key touchstones” of science-fiction (most blatantly, hero Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey), Interstellar boasts some truly breathtaking cosmic visuals and, thanks to input from real-life astrophysicist Kip Thorne, a keen understanding of everything from time dilation to supermassive black holes. But in a rarity for the stiff upper lip Brit, he seems equally interested in exploring human emotion. None more so than in the scene where Matthew McConaughey’s space traveller – on a mission to find a replacement habitat for a dust-ravaged Earth – tearfully watches decade-spanning family footage from back home. Who knew that Nolan does indeed have a heart? (Stream on HBO Max or Now. Rent on YouTube, Google Play, Apple TV or Sky Store). (Photo: Warner Bros)
