AND HERE.. WE.. GO. In Part I of The Chris Nolan Chronicles, Ben and Rob set the stage by digging into the director's origins as an aspiring young lad, including a look at his ‘Doodlebug’ short [6:00]. The two then examine Nolan’s 1998 debut, the neo-noir ‘Following’ [17:00], discussing how it was made on an insanely low budget, the early flashes of the filmmaker’s style that he is later known for, introduce their CNC Awards + more. Next they tackle Nolan’s singular approach to narrative, such as his hatred of linear storytelling, his unapologetic love for cross cutting and how these techniques became a common thread throughout his filmography [41:30]. Ben and Rob then analyze Nolan’s indie breakthrough in ‘Memento,’ assessing the thriller’s plot, performances, structure + more as they ponder: is this the most confusing movie ever made? [52:00]. To wrap up Part I, they swoon over the director’s drive for cinematic originality [1:25:00].
