Symphonic Warfare In viewing the vast array of films that he's so effortlessly and boldly directed to audiences that are either thrilled mentally or physically, it's not hard to fathom that Christopher Nolan is an illusive film-maker that thrives in creating a surrealistic spectacle. From the dexterous narrative formalities of Momento to the cinematic trickery seen through the lens of Inception and The Prestige , it's clear to note that Nolan likes to ensnare the viewers gaze with instinctive film-making that no other attainable director can simply replicate. How intriguing it is then to witness the visceral experience of  Nolan's latest screen-grabber of Dunkirk ; a war film that is stemmed in immersive realism, rather then surrealism, that encompasses creative sensibilities that keep our eyes fixated on the events that follow. When thinking about war films of the past, it's hard not think about the likes of Apocalypse Now or Saving Private Ryan since f

Indeed, with Disney's Marvel Cinematic Universe recently expanding its horizons with not only the visually psychedelic Doctor Strange  but with James Gunn's character-entrancing Guardians of the Galaxy.Vol 2 , it's understandably difficult for those who haven't been acquainted with every character in other features that have come-and-gone to be engaged with what's going on-screen since this specific universe is filled with an array of superheroes that have their own separate stories to fulfil.

A Comical Yet Poignant Creature Feature For those who are attuned to the ever-changing environment of the cinematic-industry, it will come to no surprise to perceive and understand that the Cannes Film festival is notorious for audiences and critics alike to bashfully jeer at a film-makers piece of work and what they're trying to thematically convey. Indeed, you only have to look at the hasty disapproval's that directors of Quentin Tarantino and Nicholas Winding Refn have received in recent years to comprehend Cannes' audiences contempt of new titles screening at the event. As much as films, in the past, were booed during their showing, Bong Joon Ho's recent filmic outing of Okja  instead received a rare distinction during its premiere at Cannes a couple of months ago; it was booed before it was even displayed.
