The British director is as loved as he is hated, but there is no doubt that some of his works transcend the cinematographic element.
The world of cinema allows us to dream of stories of such diversity that we all have a gap between its different genres to entertain ourselves. In the case of the Science fictiongenre in which it is framed interstellar, we can marvel at the most amazing robots or technology that is ahead of its time. The film about which Christopher Nolan has recently spoken, in the digital medium The Daily Beast, is one of the best exponents of modern science fictionalthough for many it is nonsense that needs explanation.
Christopher Nolan wants to clear up doubts about an unexpected twist in the script and an ending open to interpretations
Given that we will be talking about statements by the director of the film and that part of the plot is revealed in them, We recommend that you only continue reading if you have already seen Interstellar. That being said, I think most of us will agree that the presence of Matt Damon halfway through the footage was a unexpected and interesting surprise, for which we were not prepared. During the first half of the film, the script had introduced us to Doctor Mann in some conversations, but we didn’t expect him to still be alive, much less to be played by a renowned actor. Besides that first impact, by the way, your role is more relevant than expected.
After visiting a planet with colossal ocean waves that almost made the mission fail, the team’s only hope is visit the planet of Doctor Mann, which still continues to send signals periodically. However, these have been falsified by the scientist, so that his planet is the chosen one and can be rescued. Christopher Nolantalking about the motivations of the doctor played by Matt Damon, it states:
It’s very simple: selfishness and cowardice. He’s very human and I love what Matt did. He found reality. It’s the kind of sequence where you hate the guy, because he’s doing something that you feel you might as well end up doing in a similar situation. It is very logical, but its rationalization is extraordinary. The way he was able to rationalize his own cowardice into something positive. Loneliness and despair can lead us to do crazy things.
As for the movie’s endingwith messages through space-time and a humanity that seems to have managed to leave the planet to venture into the cosmos, nolan assures that:
You’re going to have to go back and watch it again. People always have radically different interpretations of the things I put on screen, but I know what I think and I don’t like that it has more validity than the experience you have watching it.
