"Tenet" (2020, Dir. Christopher Nolan) - CFS Movie Discussion & Review Carleton Film Society | Movie Discussions

    • Cinema: recensioni

Three Carleton Film Society (CFS) members - Stéphanie Hubert, Keya Shirali, and Beatrice Villadelgado - sat down (virtually) to discuss Christopher Nolan's latest film Tenet (2020). In this movie discussion, our members speculated on the impact of the film on the award circuit and why it was not as highly acclaimed as expected. They also discuss theories of what the ending of "Tenet" might have meant, and what was the message of the overall film. 

  Tenet's logline: "Armed with only one word, Tenet, and fighting for the survival of the entire world, a Protagonist journeys through a twilight world of international espionage on a mission that will unfold in something beyond real time." (IMDB) As much as this logline is supposed to describe the film, there is so much more to review and discuss from this action-packed complex film. The Carleton Film Society delves into some of that in this movie discussion. Tenet was directed by Christopher Nolan (as they go into in discussing the Nolan effect) and stars John David Washington, Robert Pattinson, and Elizabeth Debicki.

   This was the second movie discussion that we had, and we have decided to continue this series bi-weekly, which will stream live on our Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/carletonfilmsociety). Here, we summarize and share our first thoughts about the films we watch and discuss the themes that have stood out to us. We review these films is a way that is not meant to offend, but rather be inclusive. You can listen to our thoughts and reviews of other new releases on our CFS Movie Discussion playlist. 

  The Carleton Film Society is a club from Carleton University that includes film studies, and film lovers students to discuss some of their favorite films. Along with our movie discussion series, we also have screening events, an active interactive social media page, and a film festival coming soon. 

  Let us know your thoughts about "Tenet" below, and what stood out to you.
