It was replayed once this year in UK in the cinema , after the first lockdown, I can tell you even though I have seen it many times, twice in the cinema, it still took my breath away
Yeah... But... There's a problem, the moment the slam into a cloud that turns out to be ice, for a realistic film we don't even a moment to the see the crew react nor does anyone talk about it at all, the speed and impact of that should of broken the thing a part or at least impact them in some way.
This video makes you understand how vital it is that the editor a) understands storytelling b) understands the story the director and writer want to tell
this movie is what pushed my interest in physics, astronomy, quantum mechanics, and spirituality and now i’m dead ass working to become an astrophysicist lmfao. *movies have impact*
have you ever seen 2001 a space odyssey? I saw that one before interstellar came out and thats what did it for me. when I saw interstellar in theaters it blew my mind just like 2001... both amazing film
my condolences. I remember the moment exactly, when I sat in the Imax, and this scene came up - everyone cried. I went for a second screening in English language, a month later, and there where probably 15 guys in the room - everyone cried. After a year, watched it at home with the wife, everyone cried.
It was 23 years ago now... but that child-like innocence of simply not understanding it, as she does when he leaves her....My Father died in a hospice, and I was walked in to say my final goodbyes at the age of 10 which is diifficult when there's so much drugs in his system to keep him pain free..The way the Father cries out to be with his child in this scene, I felt the same in my Fathers eyes looking at me for the last time...Kills me Thanks for the kind messages guys.
I get very emotional as well in this scene. My view on this scene is that what I do in the current time and the mistakes I have made make memories with friends or family or even someone I like and doing something I should have asked her or mistake why someone I like don't like me back what I have said. I look into the past and think about what I could have done for the better or mistake I made in the past has caused me to be where I am now sad with nobody to give my love and affection to. This really hits deep for me. I hope whoever is reading this doesn't have the same issues I do as I need to live life to my fullest and say yes to an opportune life gives them and not worry about why woman you approach don't accept who you are as a person.
If you want to know how impactful Interstellar was, I still remember the night we watched it at the movies and I was sleepless for hours just staring at the ceiling 😐
If you wanna know how impactful it was, I cry anytime I watch a story/editing breakdown of the film. And every time I even think of the ending scene with Old Murph. Really I cry thinking about the movie in general. And i legitimately don't cry almost ever normally.
@@Alex-bw6yd same it had me at the edge of tears so I stopped it for a short while. Kinda regret I did, its good to let the emotions run free. Guess I gotta rewatch it haha
I remember as well. I also just watched it a couple of days ago and I could not fall asleep. My mind kept going back, reviewing scenes, asking what if.
I remember seeing Interstellar opening night at my local AMC IMAX in Spokane and I’ve never forgotten the way I felt watching this film. To date, it’s my favorite Chris Nolan film I’ve seen opening night (I’m still waiting to see Tenet in theaters out of respect for Nolan’s wishes to the fans).
This movie is a goldmine of small details, One of my favorite is when Dr. Mann tries to hijack Endurance and causes an explosion in Endurance, You can hear the part of the explosion for a very brief moment since the Endurance was pressurized at that time but then it depressurized instantly and we cannot hear any more of the explosion. This scene felt odd at the start, Because movies usually exaggerate explosions. But later thinking about it, All of it made a lot more sense because sound doesn't travel in vacuum of space, So they literally made us experience that scene as if we were physically there!
It's not easy to make a silent scene in space without it being very boring. In Starwars and Star Trek there's always noises because otherwise it looks boring af. Imagine Kenobi and Skywalker shooting at vulture droids and massive battle ships breaking in half without any sound, even I would probably fall asleep. Christopher Nolan had a lot of courage to stick with silence in that scene, it really is a feather in his cap, and he's proven that it's possible to do a realistic space movie that is always entertaining.
kinda thinking kipp thorne happened by while that was being foleyed, picked up on the scene and told them that same exact thing.... as the air ran out, so would the sound. he ran it by nolan, and nolan said to the production, 'kipp is my jesus, do as he says. '
“What I did understand was the emotion.” This is the basis of most Chris Nolan movies. This is why Nolan movies are so popular, because they’re cerebral, well plotted stories laid on a carefully, precisely constructed framework based on emotions of characters, leading them to be tense, exciting, unpredictable and yet somehow understandable to the audience in an emotional way. And in addition Nolan movies possess brilliant direction, cinematography, editing, special effects, and of course, music. Nolan has built a solid, highly capable creative team which dovetails with his style perfectly.
@@masterwindu1234 That movie is special in it's own way. It doesn't have emotional connection, True. But, it didn't had that aim, what it aimed is to show what can happen if some 'parts' of Theoretical physics is applied to movie. It's kind of like Nolan experimenting with his movie making skills. Yes, I do understand that's it's not easy to understand even after watching 2 times. Due, to dialogue being inaudible etc. But it's a movie of it's own kind, which is completely different in a way that it applies time travel...
I liked it but the first thing i expected from tenet was a great emotional story because thats something nolan film always promises . I was disappointed but still the plot was appreciable
The internet has unleashed the potential of a lot of talented people like this man. Otherwise, he would've probably been stuck at some corporate office doing what they tell him to do and bury his analogy and editing skills. Amazing video, man. Just amazing.
"THIS GUY EDITS (TGE) is a youtube channel by film editor Sven Pape, an A.C.E. award nominee, whose credits include work for directors James Cameron, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and James Franco."
Lmao I cried my eyes out just watching the breakdown. It's been 20 minutes since i finished it and i still think about it for a second and start crying again.
@@glozzas9305 fr tho is it that there is a scarcity in these kinds of films. Like creative and epic yet heartbreaking movies. Idk when i was young i was really invested and taken into the narrative of movies (prob cuz i was yound and dumb lol) but i don't recall any other movie that brought me that feeling other than interstellar
@@birseyleryap Arrival is probably my favorite Sci-Fi movie. I'm beyond thankful I saw that and Interstellar in IMAX, since I like to watch movies knowing nothing about them beforehand. Too many trailers that completely ruin movies buy overexposing and putting key parts and characters in them. Imagine if you knew Matt Damon was going to be in Interstellar. That really caught me by surprise.
@@birseyleryap Can't agree more. These two are my favourite films, they make me feel like no other movie ever did. I've watched them both multiple times but every damn time I end up devastated but weirdly not in a bad way.
My favourite thing about interstellar is I must have seen nearly a hundred good videos on UA-cam breaking down different aspects of the film. Nolan puts so much work into details, it's an absolute treat to know others appreciate it too
Sometimes it seems like low hanging fruit for some creators but like ThisGuyEdits really does it in a really insightful way. I've been putting my own favorite films in my editor and analyzing scenes to learn stuff. I hadn't even thought about pulling apart the 3 different story lines that are presented in this one!
last year I got to see a rerun in the cinema, I'd seen the movie twice at home but seeing it on the big screen was one of my best movie experiences ever. Funny enough, it couldn't beat the first time I watched it at home on a 19'' computer screen.
Was lucky and had a local theater show it for during space week last year. It wasn't IMAX, but still the big screen. Left awed just like the first time I saw it.
Please tell me you've read the screenplay? It is so insightful and some of the notes left in the margins of some versions are really cool to see what Nolan was thinking about and to see his process as the story sort of unfolded for him in awe just like it did on screen for us! The Best honestly!
This is one of my favorite films. As someone who knows absolutely nothing about film editing or really, the film-making process, I absolutely loved this. Thank you
2001 A Space Odyssey is looked at more as a piece of art. Interstellar is going to be remembered as an experience. Literally every aspect of this movie, whether its the acting, direction, cinematography, the editing, the sound design, THE MUSIC, set design, and writing(debatable)...is firing on all cylinders. It represents the peak of filmmaking. It also has 2 scenes that I think will go down in history as some of the greatest scenes put on film; watching his children’s messages scene and the docking sequence. I remember seeing this movie in IMAX on the first day of release, planned it perfectly to make sure i got there early to get center seats and not too close to the screen. Right after Cooper pleads to Dr. Mann not to dock and then Mann blew himself up, Cooper accelerates towards the Endurance and Dr. Brandt then asks Cooper what he's doing, and he just says..."docking" (Cue Hanz Zimmer's score). I lost my shit in the theater, I got goosebumps and literally leaned forward and audibly said pretty loudly "what...the...fuck!?!". As the scene went on I remember thinking, Nolan... you crazy bastard , you just cranked the intensity up to a 10. Then the music tipped it over to an 11. That moment, that sequence with that music and the sound just blasting. Sensory Overload...I will never forget the experience. Seriously, if you sat down and really thought about "what" this movie is about, like really thought about all its themes, all its layers of depth and what its trying to say, your gonna come to only one conclusion. Its about Everything.
just watched this masterpiece and I'm addcited to this kind of genre. Do you have something to recommend like this movies ( interstellar & a space odyssey) ? would glady to watch more of it. Thanks a lot in advance.
@@kristelgicana3235 The movie Contact in my opinion beats both of the movies you named. There is no other movie that's similar to it. If you just go in and watch it without knowing anything about it prior it will be even more insane, which is how I watched it. Also a Matthew McConaughey movie with Jodie foster and more
The true message of this movie is not about the intergalactic travel but how we slowly destroying our planet, and we actually notice it but we didn't do anything to change it, i actually notice it but iam powerless.
I've heard too many people say they didn't appreciate this movie, and I really think it's because Nolan was beyond his time with this one. It really is his most profound work so far, as a statement on love, science, family, the Earth... the list goes on. It's going to take years, maybe decades for people as a whole to catch up to the genius here. It's always been my favorite of Nolan's and in my top 10 ever. I mean, when a movie makes an actual scientific breakthrough in astrophysics with it's vfx you know it's beyond it's time. (the wormhole render)
Ok, so if someone doesn't appreciate this movie is behind times (at least the time you and nolan live in). I would love to hear from you what are the movie statements about: 1) Love 2) Science 3) Family 4) The Earth. P.s. There are no scientific breakthroughs anywhere in this movie, but some mistakes (and some naive screenplay choices, but not even the people beyond their time will recognize many of them, as I can see).
@@TheRaretunes love travels through space and time. Science : life beyond planet earth and what space exploration might look like if we can somehow travel through wormhole. (Though in this section there are many loopholes in the movie but it atleast intrigues many viewers read more about space exploration.) Family : I think it's a beautiful story about father and daughter. And thier relation through time and space. The Earth : the rate that we are destroying mother earth there might be a day where we have to find new one. Though I am not on board with breakthrough in science part. One might say it is a breakthrough movie making. But not in science. Interstellar is not a perfect movie. Still I love it.
@@davidjuneja "Love travels through space and time". This isn't a "profound statement" about love, not even for a high school agenda. - there's no statement about life outside Earth. There are people searching for a new home near a blackhole. When we have possibilities in our solar system. - There is almost no development in any character outside the main one, let alone the "family". The only decent scene is a cry for longing. Nothing more. - The only statement about Earth is "we're screwed and we don't know why", nothing more You love it and you deserve to love it. But this doesn't mean is objectively a good flick.
As an (film)editor myself, I’ve noticed that there are very few films where I don’t watch it like an editor...this was one of them. It’s just perfection
In the theater, when Coop falls into the tesseract, we collectively made involuntary loud sounds out of our faces and i swear i could **hear** minds getting blown, including my own.
It wasn't you who didn't understand the film more. It's the cinematic masterpiece that's so clunky that not much can be understood from it. Ooh, he pushes books from within the teseract... with his love..
When I tell people that this is my favorite movie of all time and they reply with ''eh, it wasn't that good'' I honestly start feeling sorry for them. Not because I don't respect their preferences, but how can a human being not love this movie. This movie makes you think, wonder, cry, it gives you answers, and most importantly it separates itself from the classic and tbh boring plots of movies that are being released today. It's a classic and in my opinion, the best movie humanity has ever produced.
I know what you're talking about. I found out that the people I had a discussion with over this movie were unable to grasp the concept of a black hole, spacetime and more than three dimensions. One needs an IQ well above average to understand this movie and only then one can enjoy it.
I don't think it's even close to the best movie humanity has ever produced. I mean, it's not even the best science fiction movie ever made. It's basically a worse version of 2001. It does certain things better, but as a whole it really doesn't come close
I simply cry each time i see the scenes to understand Nolan's thinking, the thought behind the movie, each scene, heroes sacrifice, return to his daughter...true art always touches the heart coz its made of pure vibrations..
I really don't understand either, it's not just about sci-fi, space and stuff. The most understandable thing in the film whether you like sci-fi or not is the emotions. This film is a rollercoaster of emotions, I get sad when cooper leaves murph, I feel heartbroken when I see him crying in the tesaaract when he sees his daughter and their last moments, I am happy when the equation is solved and there's hope for humanity. Especially the scenes where murphy is so old and they are finally reuinted and she sends him away to brand who is just alone on a planet a galaxy away, so he won't have to watch his own child die in front of him just after they find each other again. How you not like this?
Literally yesterday I was watching the scene STAY purely for the piece of music but I loved when he is driving away, we hear the countdown and move straight to him in the rocket. We’re still left with the emotion of him leaving his kids just as he would be in those final moments left on earth before lift off. Brilliant analysis!🔥
Atmosphere, pretty much everything, so solid, to me this film is watching someone with a team of people working at the peak of creative talent! This was the first script I bought just to study, this was a real like prospective shifting movie for me at least!
2:21 "It's like the film holds the answer to how we exist and what will happen to us when we don't anymore." There's something so raw about that line. Gets me every time I watch this.
....wow...do u understand what u are saying?...this thing holds the answers to evrithing?...u cant b serious...look around u...this made-up thing holds the answers. ..
So, He's in 3d space, in the representation of a 4d object created by beings who can perceive the 5th dimension. in the 4th dimension you can see your beginning and your end, but in the 5th dimension you can see all your beginnings & all your endings. These beings, they, are the future humans in that time line who allow Matthew to open the path to that time line so that they can create this tesseract & save humanity.. I think I lost myself trying to explain this.. Some help & critiques would be appreciated.
@@LeNoLi. uhhh.. No. we are 3rd-dimensional creatures, living in a 3rd-dimensional world. The retina is a two-dimensional surface, everything it observes is limited to being 2-dimensional; our eyes can only perceive and therefore show us the second dimension. Seeing in the 3rd dimension is simply a trick of the eyes: and by extension the brain. It's a simple byproduct of our evolution putting the eyes on the front of our faces.
On my first viewing of Interstellar I thought it an interesting intellectual exercise. But on many, many subsequent viewing, I realize the movie for what is is, an imperfect masterpiece. Nolan dares to ‘swing for the fences,’ and although he doesn’t succeed 100%, he dares to go where other filmmakers are afraid to tread. Interstellar is a beautiful love letter. And love is always messy.
Well, maybe we should change the words we are using. "Perfect" "imperfect" what do those even mean? What in this universe is perfect? It's for sure a masterpiece, and a story that scales something we NEVER consistently get from Hollywood and only a few select directors have ever had the opportunity to go there you know? Love is messy, and if we get really philosophical which is where the movie goes, these emotions and memories of heros of the past, and dreams of the future, isn't that just our way of expressing our love for this place? The imperfections, the riots, the gull and daring nature of us? It's fantastic to see a small, imperfect, living breathing human creature falling into a black hole... like THAT is what stories are, overcoming the black.
@@icecreamvendor8245 bro I agree with you 😂 some Nolan fans can't tolerate the word "imperfect " and starts justifying it with terms and words and I bet you they don't know that not all can be fooled by Pretentiousness
@@abhiruproy8592 "Pretentious," and "ambitious," are two sides of the same coin, and it's up to each individual viewer to decide for themselves which side the coin lands. You not a big fan? Okay. I can't argue with that. Peace.
You said, "This scene...took me to a place very few films ever do anymore." I felt this way about so much of this film. I've seen this film at least a dozen times since its release. Thank you for this video. It allowed me to watch this powerful sequence and to see it from a different perspective. I appreciate you and I'm a new fan of yours.
Far and away the single best breakdown and analysis of a film I've ever seen. Incredibly good work here. Makes me appreciate the brilliance of this remarkable film even more!
@@THEaxz95 English, evidently, is not his first language. Or he's American, which is pretty much the same thing. Either way, I do wonder what word he accidentally substituted for 'possible'. If we knew, it might actually be a really deep comment.
@@kraxhaug2279 Ah ok, thank you Anders, that does make sense, although in my opinion, in order to remove room for confusion entirely, one needs to add the word "only" (and maybe even "downright" for good measure) - as in, "this Breakdown is not only sufficient, but downright necessary". That, for me anyway, makes it very clear. Thanks man! And also to the OP, I totally agree.
I just want to say that is one of the smoothest, most genuine integrated sponsorship ad I've ever watched. Also, incredible analysis, gave me goosebumps. That ad though...
I remember when I saw Interstellar in a packed IMAX theater. When the movie ended and the credits started rolling, not a single person moved said a word for... 60 seconds? Three minutes? An eternity? [What is time, anyway?] EVERYONE was left wide-eyed and speechless. Hardly anyone spoke as we pulled our minds back into our bodies and walked out of the theater. I've never experienced that before or since.
12:35 audience learning while protagonist learning is the structure of entire films, like Men In Black and The Matrix. Exposition is not always bad. Good point-out.
Incredible analysis of these scenes. This is my favorite movie for many reasons, and I love watching/reading content that helps me have a deeper appreciation for the art and science behind it. Thank you!
The tesseract scene was the scene that made me fall in love with Interstellar. It makes so emotionally and it’s full meaning and transcendence. My favorite movie after so many years.
I saw this movie in theaters as kid the same week our school did a trip to the JPL center in Pasadena California , when I was in middle school. I realized then that I wanted to become a high altitude pilot. I joined the airforce rotc program durring college, but unfortunately I was hit by a car that drove through a red light when I was on a morning run, and that marked the end of my dream. Years later I went back to school and slowly finis hed my degree in electrical engineering recently. I now work as a defense contractor where I help design avionics systems for fighter jets. This movie made me realize what I loved as a kid until today as an adult and that was space and flight. So I hold Interstellar true to my heart.
Even now just watching these edited scenes evokes so much emotion in me, that at the time of watching this film I was going through the most painful time in my life for my own daughter and never knew if id see her again when she was just 4 - the power of love on this level holds no equal and this film is exceptional in portraying that.
@@mattbecker743 You didn't like the movie, fair enough, but why do you have to pretend like it's because it's beneath you? If the movie hits the audience's emotions exactly how it was intended to, that's a pretty sure sign that it's a good movie. You're talking like your opinion is object when all the evidence suggests that you are in the minority. I'm not aware of any other hard sci-fi films based around the concept of higher dimensional travel but from the way you're talking it sounds like there are a few that I've missed. Would you mind sharing some recomendations? I'd genuinely like to experience these superior films. Thanks.
Great video. You spoke of the three timelines: young Murph, older Murph, and Cooper's. I always took it as older Murph and Cooper were at about the same timeline while he was in the Tesseract. Once you started cutting, I began to think about it. Though Nolan portrays them at the same point, it may have taken place much later. My argument for this is based off of the assumption that Cooper and Brand stay on the same timeline. We see her at the end of the movie on the other planet, and Murph tells Cooper to go find her. We also know that being near the blackhole changes time. It could be that time raced forward another 50 or so years while they detached. That would make Murph close to the end of her life, like how we see her at the end of the movie. This makes more sense to me, since the jump in time would take place before the blackhole, and not after the closing of the Tesseract. Then Cooper and Brand would still be in the same timeline, but Murph would be much older. This adds a whole other depth to the movie for me. Murph would have already long passed the 'older Murph timeline' when Cooper got to the Tesseract. But since Cooper went back to when she was a child, and relayed the information, she was able to receive it in the 'older Murph timeline'.
Yes, this is a fascinating conundrum. I do think that Cooper never saw older Murph in the Tesseract. Theoretically, he could have, but all his interactions we see in the film were only with young Murph. Older Murph was just intercut to show her memory of the same childhood moments. Even when he starts manipulating the clock on the bookshelf, this actually happens when young Murph initially puts the clock on the shelf and not when older Murph puts it there and takes it away moments later.
A true masterpiece of cinema. I could talk about this film for many years to come. I've lost count how many times I've watched it and it blows me away every time.
The tesseract-thing in this movie is eerily similar to what sometimes happen with mirrors and weak electric circuits near it - You get the instant feel of a higher presence. I got exactly this confirmed in a message given to me over 5-6 month where numbers & character in my dreams where very intense. I wrote all those down, ran it through random conversion tools (hex etc.) and what shocked me was that it obviously came from a friend who committed suicide a year prior. The outcome was his name mirrored. Then I understood that there is a connection to other dimensions and I still get messages though its slowing down. I was hit by a stroke a year ago (blood clot in my brain) and I realized there's nothing to be afraid of, because when I went into the MR scanner he, and another deceased friend was there with 2 unknown huge entities. I came out, survived and was told that I was speaking french to the doctors immediately after. I don't speak french and have no clue where that came from. I've been fascinated by this movie since it touches some of these elements .. wonder if the director have experienced something similar to mine.
One major thing to keep in mind is that inside the Tesseract, Cooper wasn't time traveling. All instances in time from Murph's bedroom has been showcased in front of him. So, any kind of entropy he makes is applied to all the time periods. That's why the watch's second hand movement was visible to present day Murph even though Cooper passed the quantum data through the watch which was from the past. Same goes for the books & space toys on the bookshelf.
Just seeing and hearing the thesseract scene even with breaks and talk over is giving me so hard emotions. Story, music, word building, performance, editing, CGI,... all put so much effort into it, it hits like a brick. The story itself isnt even long or twisty at second watch, but there are so much close ups and small talk to establish emotion, so much ambience or ambienceless space it eats into the viewers emotions. Even after third or fourth watch.
Watched it these days the fifth time, directly after the forth time two weaks earlier. And beeing spoilered doesnt even ruin this film, it makes it better, the frustration of time relativity and therefore the stakes get even higher, because you start to realize how much time they are loosing with smallest mistakes or just standing around beeing impressed by the view on these alien planets.
I can't get over how this movie is from 2014. Astro physics already interested me as a child and for some reason I always thought this movie was old like Star Treck. But yesterday I actually watched it and I'm so sad that I didn't watch it sooner. It is one of my favorite movies ever after just one watch, ugh it's great.
Just a quick more info about relativity complimenting your excelent explanation at 9:20. I'm referring to the 3 ages of Murphy as: kid Murphy, adult Murphy and older Murphy. Murphy wasn't in her adult age when Cooper was inside the Tesseract. Relative to Tesseract Cooper, Murphy was the older one. Kid Murphy became Adult Murphy right after Cooper came back from the water planet mission, the one with big waves, because that planet was closer to the black hole and made Cooper move much more quicker throught time relative to kid Murphy on Earth. Murphy was in her adult age only until he came back closer to the black hole before jumpingg into it, and, as he "fell" more and more through the black hole, adulp Murphy started to age faster and faster as Cooper travelled faster and faster to the center of the black hole. She aged enough to become old Murphy, and only stopped aging right after Cooper crossed the boundary between the mass of black hole and the tridimensional space of the tesseract. That's why she is old Murphy aboard the Cooper station when they reunite, old Murphy is the present Murphy relative to Cooper. Pretty cool, right? They nailed relativity.
Not to add salt to the wound but I saw it in Imax too. what can I say you missed big on this one! But hey theres always re-release's of Nolans films in Imax!
This movie will always be my all-time favorite, out of any genre. Of course there are other masterpieces like Schindler's List, The Princess Bride, The Mask of Zorro, The Walk, and others, but this one sits atop them all like a king. Watching it in the Marbles IMAX theater was absolutely incredible, during the launch scene when Hans Zimmer's (INCREDIBLE musical producer by the way) "Stay" is at its climax and the rocket engines are firing, you could actually feel it in your seat because the entire movie theater was vibrating from the sound. The story in this movie about the power of love and how it transcends both time and space is surreal, and the moments of tension, loss, sadness, regret, awe, realization, and wonder are all so beautifully captured. What a work of art!
What struck me was how "Interstellar" is really a ghost movie, on many levels. Ghosts of time we lost with our loved ones. Ghosts of our past selves, and those of our family. And of course the actual manifestation of an invisible conscious agent interacting with the real world, which happens to be the same person as who is being interacted with. These are also elements of "A Ghost Story" another great movie from the last few years, about an actual ghost, interacting with himself. Edit: And Casey Affleck is in both movies, I just realised.
Nolan in his lab writing formulas «Oh shit, was tryna write the formula for interstellar travel, guess I wrote an award winning, 2 hour long movie. Better make it happen»
What a fantastic video! Your rearranged edit made it feel so much more real and I ended up catching dialog I never noticed before. Don't get me wrong, the original movie was great, but seeing that scene play out with the past in "real time" (linear) from both sides of the book shelf made it so cohesive. Absolutely fantastic! 👌
watched interstellar twice at the cinema - the only film I have gone back to and watched it on my own the second time round to concentrate. I didn't even pick up on half the detail contained on this small youtube vid. Just loved how emotional it made me feel. Recently re-watched it hence finding this youtube channel. Simply enjoy the way I am taken elswhere. Even more of a wreck watching this now as I have two children of my own.....
And yet, a shitty ending. So crap it seems a studio thing. Sure, the guy returns 80 years after saving humankind, and "nah, this station's name is not an homage to you, dumbass".
@@TheRaretunes well technically prof brand solved the equation. Murph fixed the equation based on the quantum data she get from coop. Even if there's hundreds of physician that help her to solve the equation, she still gonna get the recognition bcs people on earth believe the quantum data came from her even though she said it came from the "Ghost" in her bedroom
@@JSNtheArsonist Who cares about the recognition. My point was that their sit on the equation the whole movie. This flick declares to be scientifically ahead of the others but all I can see is science being reduced to something ridiculous. This is not how science works and how it's done, and neither how would have been done in similar circumstances. I really don't care much about the whole movie message (and frankly it's not even a clear one), but the world building, and these premises are absurd. First of all a wormhole inside a star system.
Easily my favourite film for so many reasons - and that scene in particular is so impactful that I get a lump in my throat even watching it being broken down in your video. A true masterpiece 🙌
My one regret is never seeing this in cinemas. That soundtrack is ethereal!
I was in cinema and really had to pee and i went at the worst moment... When i came bakc i lost like 20 years hahaha
i think you can rent out a theater during this quarantine
same bruuh
It was replayed once this year in UK in the cinema , after the first lockdown, I can tell you even though I have seen it many times, twice in the cinema, it still took my breath away
I saw this in theater when it came out. I was in complete awe. A truly unreal experience.

There's a problem, the moment the slam into a cloud that turns out to be ice, for a realistic film we don't even a moment to the see the crew react nor does anyone talk about it at all, the speed and impact of that should of broken the thing a part or at least impact them in some way.
This video makes you understand how vital it is that the editor
a) understands storytelling
b) understands the story the director and writer want to tell
this movie is what pushed my interest in physics, astronomy, quantum mechanics, and spirituality and now i’m dead ass working to become an astrophysicist lmfao. *movies have impact*
have you ever seen 2001 a space odyssey?
I saw that one before interstellar came out and thats what did it for me. when I saw interstellar in theaters it blew my mind just like 2001... both amazing film
Watch the movie Contact it's the only movie better than this one
@@City0fTroy I watch that movie again last week in memory of Arecibo Telescope :(
Same! I started studying physics this year and Interstellar played a big role in that decision
This movie and Nolan’s Dunkirk are the two movies that made me want to become a filmmaker. So I’m starting to write stories now.
The scene where he's crying at himself not to leave his daughter ...Having lost my father at a young age, that scene crushes my heart everytime
im sorry for you mate, stay strong :(
my condolences. I remember the moment exactly, when I sat in the Imax, and this scene came up - everyone cried. I went for a second screening in English language, a month later, and there where probably 15 guys in the room - everyone cried. After a year, watched it at home with the wife, everyone cried.
It was 23 years ago now... but that child-like innocence of simply not understanding it, as she does when he leaves her....My Father died in a hospice, and I was walked in to say my final goodbyes at the age of 10 which is diifficult when there's so much drugs in his system to keep him pain free..The way the Father cries out to be with his child in this scene, I felt the same in my Fathers eyes looking at me for the last time...Kills me
Thanks for the kind messages guys.
I get very emotional as well in this scene. My view on this scene is that what I do in the current time and the mistakes I have made make memories with friends or family or even someone I like and doing something I should have asked her or mistake why someone I like don't like me back what I have said. I look into the past and think about what I could have done for the better or mistake I made in the past has caused me to be where I am now sad with nobody to give my love and affection to. This really hits deep for me. I hope whoever is reading this doesn't have the same issues I do as I need to live life to my fullest and say yes to an opportune life gives them and not worry about why woman you approach don't accept who you are as a person.
^_^ God bless you ♥♥♥ :")

If you want to know how impactful Interstellar was, I still remember the night we watched it at the movies and I was sleepless for hours just staring at the ceiling 😐
If you wanna know how impactful it was, I cry anytime I watch a story/editing breakdown of the film. And every time I even think of the ending scene with Old Murph. Really I cry thinking about the movie in general. And i legitimately don't cry almost ever normally.
@@Alex-bw6yd same it had me at the edge of tears so I stopped it for a short while. Kinda regret I did, its good to let the emotions run free. Guess I gotta rewatch it haha
I remember as well. I also just watched it a couple of days ago and I could not fall asleep. My mind kept going back, reviewing scenes, asking what if.
It was a beautiful night for me to be able to see it in the big screen with only few watchers.
thats beautiful
Interstellar is a masterpiece of our time. Chris Nolan + Hanz Zimmer music = Epicness
*Hans
"Epicness" for dummies.
???@@cinemusicberlin
Nah bro it's a masterpiece ahead of our time. This movie won't ever get old, and i don't think i will ever get tired of it.
The soundtrack is literally the peak of film music.
Ludwig goranson he also does it for Mandalorian and Tennet
@@pwned2bad nope, its Hans Zimmer
Hats off to Hans Zimmer
I read somewhere that the soundtrack is so amazing that has its own fan base inside movie.
I remember seeing Interstellar opening night at my local AMC IMAX in Spokane and I’ve never forgotten the way I felt watching this film. To date, it’s my favorite Chris Nolan film I’ve seen opening night (I’m still waiting to see Tenet in theaters out of respect for Nolan’s wishes to the fans).
This movie is a goldmine of small details, One of my favorite is when Dr. Mann tries to hijack Endurance and causes an explosion in Endurance, You can hear the part of the explosion for a very brief moment since the Endurance was pressurized at that time but then it depressurized instantly and we cannot hear any more of the explosion.
This scene felt odd at the start, Because movies usually exaggerate explosions. But later thinking about it, All of it made a lot more sense because sound doesn't travel in vacuum of space, So they literally made us experience that scene as if we were physically there!
It's not easy to make a silent scene in space without it being very boring. In Starwars and Star Trek there's always noises because otherwise it looks boring af. Imagine Kenobi and Skywalker shooting at vulture droids and massive battle ships breaking in half without any sound, even I would probably fall asleep.
Christopher Nolan had a lot of courage to stick with silence in that scene, it really is a feather in his cap, and he's proven that it's possible to do a realistic space movie that is always entertaining.
What video editor is he using?
kinda thinking kipp thorne happened by while that was being foleyed, picked up on the scene and told them that same exact thing.... as the air ran out, so would the sound. he ran it by nolan, and nolan said to the production, 'kipp is my jesus, do as he says. '

@@lilarav689 jokes on you we are already IN space.
“What I did understand was the emotion.”
This is the basis of most Chris Nolan movies. This is why Nolan movies are so popular, because they’re cerebral, well plotted stories laid on a carefully, precisely constructed framework based on emotions of characters, leading them to be tense, exciting, unpredictable and yet somehow understandable to the audience in an emotional way.
And in addition Nolan movies possess brilliant direction, cinematography, editing, special effects, and of course, music. Nolan has built a solid, highly capable creative team which dovetails with his style perfectly.
"...Emotion."
Yoko Taro be like: "this mf' spittin'..."
....and then Tenet came out
@@masterwindu1234 That movie is special in it's own way. It doesn't have emotional connection, True. But, it didn't had that aim, what it aimed is to show what can happen if some 'parts' of Theoretical physics is applied to movie. It's kind of like Nolan experimenting with his movie making skills. Yes, I do understand that's it's not easy to understand even after watching 2 times. Due, to dialogue being inaudible etc. But it's a movie of it's own kind, which is completely different in a way that it applies time travel...
I liked it but the first thing i expected from tenet was a great emotional story because thats something nolan film always promises . I was disappointed but still the plot was appreciable
Depends which one. Batman Begins and Dunkirk didn't have very good cinematography.
The internet has unleashed the potential of a lot of talented people like this man. Otherwise, he would've probably been stuck at some corporate office doing what they tell him to do and bury his analogy and editing skills.
Amazing video, man. Just amazing.

@@birseyleryap Arrival is probably my favorite Sci-Fi movie. I'm beyond thankful I saw that and Interstellar in IMAX, since I like to watch movies knowing nothing about them beforehand. Too many trailers that completely ruin movies buy overexposing and putting key parts and characters in them.

Without Hans I don't think this movie would have hit the way it does.
after years people are still talking about this movie. just comes to show that this film is a modern masterpiece.
My favourite thing about interstellar is I must have seen nearly a hundred good videos on UA-cam breaking down different aspects of the film. Nolan puts so much work into details, it's an absolute treat to know others appreciate it too
Sometimes it seems like low hanging fruit for some creators but like ThisGuyEdits really does it in a really insightful way. I've been putting my own favorite films in my editor and analyzing scenes to learn stuff. I hadn't even thought about pulling apart the 3 different story lines that are presented in this one!

If this movie is released again in theatres... It would still be Superhit.
I've heard IMAX offers some reruns at select IMAX theaters every once in a while.
It's being projected in Barcelona. Watched it yersterday!!
it's being projected in India as well. TENET is also releasing on 4th .
last year I got to see a rerun in the cinema, I'd seen the movie twice at home but seeing it on the big screen was one of my best movie experiences ever. Funny enough, it couldn't beat the first time I watched it at home on a 19'' computer screen.
Was lucky and had a local theater show it for during space week last year. It wasn't IMAX, but still the big screen. Left awed just like the first time I saw it.
What an amazing breakdown of my favourite film, this film means so much to me and to see you break it down was great!
Wow, thanks!
Honestly, same 💕
Please tell me you've read the screenplay? It is so insightful and some of the notes left in the margins of some versions are really cool to see what Nolan was thinking about and to see his process as the story sort of unfolded for him in awe just like it did on screen for us! The Best honestly!
Thank you for this
Same here my man. Love this movie forever!
This is one of my favorite films. As someone who knows absolutely nothing about film editing or really, the film-making process, I absolutely loved this. Thank you
2001 A Space Odyssey is looked at more as a piece of art. Interstellar is going to be remembered as an experience. Literally every aspect of this movie, whether its the acting, direction, cinematography, the editing, the sound design, THE MUSIC, set design, and writing(debatable)...is firing on all cylinders. It represents the peak of filmmaking. It also has 2 scenes that I think will go down in history as some of the greatest scenes put on film; watching his children’s messages scene and the docking sequence.
I remember seeing this movie in IMAX on the first day of release, planned it perfectly to make sure i got there early to get center seats and not too close to the screen. Right after Cooper pleads to Dr. Mann not to dock and then Mann blew himself up, Cooper accelerates towards the Endurance and Dr. Brandt then asks Cooper what he's doing, and he just says..."docking" (Cue Hanz Zimmer's score). I lost my shit in the theater, I got goosebumps and literally leaned forward and audibly said pretty loudly "what...the...fuck!?!". As the scene went on I remember thinking, Nolan... you crazy bastard , you just cranked the intensity up to a 10. Then the music tipped it over to an 11. That moment, that sequence with that music and the sound just blasting. Sensory Overload...I will never forget the experience.
Seriously, if you sat down and really thought about "what" this movie is about, like really thought about all its themes, all its layers of depth and what its trying to say, your gonna come to only one conclusion. Its about Everything.
just watched this masterpiece and I'm addcited to this kind of genre. Do you have something to recommend like this movies ( interstellar & a space odyssey) ? would glady to watch more of it. Thanks a lot in advance.
@@kristelgicana3235 The movie Contact in my opinion beats both of the movies you named. There is no other movie that's similar to it.

Speak for yourself.
The true message of this movie is not about the intergalactic travel but how we slowly destroying our planet, and we actually notice it but we didn't do anything to change it, i actually notice it but iam powerless.
No, not yet.
But one day.
is it "Underrated"?
I've heard too many people say they didn't appreciate this movie, and I really think it's because Nolan was beyond his time with this one. It really is his most profound work so far, as a statement on love, science, family, the Earth... the list goes on. It's going to take years, maybe decades for people as a whole to catch up to the genius here. It's always been my favorite of Nolan's and in my top 10 ever.
I mean, when a movie makes an actual scientific breakthrough in astrophysics with it's vfx you know it's beyond it's time. (the wormhole render)
its a blackhole render.
Ok, so if someone doesn't appreciate this movie is behind times (at least the time you and nolan live in).
I would love to hear from you what are the movie statements about:
1) Love
2) Science
3) Family
4) The Earth.
P.s. There are no scientific breakthroughs anywhere in this movie, but some mistakes (and some naive screenplay choices, but not even the people beyond their time will recognize many of them, as I can see).
@@TheRaretunes love travels through space and time.
Science : life beyond planet earth and what space exploration might look like if we can somehow travel through wormhole. (Though in this section there are many loopholes in the movie but it atleast intrigues many viewers read more about space exploration.)
Family : I think it's a beautiful story about father and daughter. And thier relation through time and space.
The Earth : the rate that we are destroying mother earth there might be a day where we have to find new one.
Though I am not on board with breakthrough in science part.
One might say it is a breakthrough movie making. But not in science.
Interstellar is not a perfect movie. Still I love it.
Tell me your top 10 movies...
I want to know if there's still something for me to discover....
@@davidjuneja "Love travels through space and time". This isn't a "profound statement" about love, not even for a high school agenda.
- there's no statement about life outside Earth. There are people searching for a new home near a blackhole. When we have possibilities in our solar system.
- There is almost no development in any character outside the main one, let alone the "family". The only decent scene is a cry for longing. Nothing more.
- The only statement about Earth is "we're screwed and we don't know why", nothing more
You love it and you deserve to love it. But this doesn't mean is objectively a good flick.

It's a classic and in my opinion, the best movie humanity has ever produced.
I know what you're talking about. I found out that the people I had a discussion with over this movie were unable to grasp the concept of a black hole, spacetime and more than three dimensions. One needs an IQ well above average to understand this movie and only then one can enjoy it.

SAAAAMEEE!
I really don't understand either, it's not just about sci-fi, space and stuff. The most understandable thing in the film whether you like sci-fi or not is the emotions. This film is a rollercoaster of emotions, I get sad when cooper leaves murph, I feel heartbroken when I see him crying in the tesaaract when he sees his daughter and their last moments, I am happy when the equation is solved and there's hope for humanity. Especially the scenes where murphy is so old and they are finally reuinted and she sends him away to brand who is just alone on a planet a galaxy away, so he won't have to watch his own child die in front of him just after they find each other again. How you not like this?

@@LeNoLi. uhhh.. No. we are 3rd-dimensional creatures, living in a 3rd-dimensional world. The retina is a two-dimensional surface, everything it observes is limited to being 2-dimensional; our eyes can only perceive and therefore show us the second dimension. Seeing in the 3rd dimension is simply a trick of the eyes: and by extension the brain. It's a simple byproduct of our evolution putting the eyes on the front of our faces.
On my first viewing of Interstellar I thought it an interesting intellectual exercise. But on many, many subsequent viewing, I realize the movie for what is is, an imperfect masterpiece.
Nolan dares to ‘swing for the fences,’ and although he doesn’t succeed 100%, he dares to go where other filmmakers are afraid to tread.
Interstellar is a beautiful love letter. And love is always messy.
Well, maybe we should change the words we are using. "Perfect" "imperfect" what do those even mean? What in this universe is perfect? It's for sure a masterpiece, and a story that scales something we NEVER consistently get from Hollywood and only a few select directors have ever had the opportunity to go there you know? Love is messy, and if we get really philosophical which is where the movie goes, these emotions and memories of heros of the past, and dreams of the future, isn't that just our way of expressing our love for this place? The imperfections, the riots, the gull and daring nature of us? It's fantastic to see a small, imperfect, living breathing human creature falling into a black hole... like THAT is what stories are, overcoming the black.

Hans Zimmer's soundtrack is what takes this movie to a whole other level. I get goosebumps everytime I listen to it. This is Nolan's masterpiece.
I remember when I saw Interstellar in a packed IMAX theater. When the movie ended and the credits started rolling, not a single person moved said a word for... 60 seconds? Three minutes? An eternity? [What is time, anyway?] EVERYONE was left wide-eyed and speechless. Hardly anyone spoke as we pulled our minds back into our bodies and walked out of the theater. I've never experienced that before or since.
It's not just a movie, it showed how it all might come to an end and still we would be able to flourish...and it might just be true..SOMEDAY!

The tesseract scene was the scene that made me fall in love with Interstellar. It makes so emotionally and it’s full meaning and transcendence. My favorite movie after so many years.
I saw this movie in theaters as kid the same week our school did a trip to the JPL center in Pasadena California , when I was in middle school. I realized then that I wanted to become a high altitude pilot. I joined the airforce rotc program durring college, but unfortunately I was hit by a car that drove through a red light when I was on a morning run, and that marked the end of my dream. Years later I went back to school and slowly finis hed my degree in electrical engineering recently. I now work as a defense contractor where I help design avionics systems for fighter jets. This movie made me realize what I loved as a kid until today as an adult and that was space and flight. So I hold Interstellar true to my heart.
Even now just watching these edited scenes evokes so much emotion in me, that at the time of watching this film I was going through the most painful time in my life for my own daughter and never knew if id see her again when she was just 4 - the power of love on this level holds no equal and this film is exceptional in portraying that.
I dont understand how this didnt win Best Picture.
Because the concept, although complex was actually very simple and has contradictory. It wasn't a very good movie
because it had no "wokedness" in it, and thats what "they're" selling. :(
@@mattbecker743 You didn't like the movie, fair enough, but why do you have to pretend like it's because it's beneath you? If the movie hits the audience's emotions exactly how it was intended to, that's a pretty sure sign that it's a good movie. You're talking like your opinion is object when all the evidence suggests that you are in the minority. I'm not aware of any other hard sci-fi films based around the concept of higher dimensional travel but from the way you're talking it sounds like there are a few that I've missed. Would you mind sharing some recomendations? I'd genuinely like to experience these superior films. Thanks.
@@mattbecker743 Bast movie ever made. One day you will see it to.
because it's trash
Interstellar is one of them movies that makes everyone feel like they're an astrophysicist
Tbh if you weren't interested in it beforehand I just don't think you'd experience the movie in the same way
This
we all love, so we all can insert our love into time and fiddle with the dark matter inside the black hole
Great video. You spoke of the three timelines: young Murph, older Murph, and Cooper's. I always took it as older Murph and Cooper were at about the same timeline while he was in the Tesseract. Once you started cutting, I began to think about it. Though Nolan portrays them at the same point, it may have taken place much later.
My argument for this is based off of the assumption that Cooper and Brand stay on the same timeline. We see her at the end of the movie on the other planet, and Murph tells Cooper to go find her. We also know that being near the blackhole changes time. It could be that time raced forward another 50 or so years while they detached. That would make Murph close to the end of her life, like how we see her at the end of the movie. This makes more sense to me, since the jump in time would take place before the blackhole, and not after the closing of the Tesseract. Then Cooper and Brand would still be in the same timeline, but Murph would be much older.
This adds a whole other depth to the movie for me. Murph would have already long passed the 'older Murph timeline' when Cooper got to the Tesseract. But since Cooper went back to when she was a child, and relayed the information, she was able to receive it in the 'older Murph timeline'.
Yes, this is a fascinating conundrum. I do think that Cooper never saw older Murph in the Tesseract. Theoretically, he could have, but all his interactions we see in the film were only with young Murph. Older Murph was just intercut to show her memory of the same childhood moments. Even when he starts manipulating the clock on the bookshelf, this actually happens when young Murph initially puts the clock on the shelf and not when older Murph puts it there and takes it away moments later.
A true masterpiece of cinema. I could talk about this film for many years to come. I've lost count how many times I've watched it and it blows me away every time.
The tesseract-thing in this movie is eerily similar to what sometimes happen with mirrors and weak electric circuits near it - You get the instant feel of a higher presence. I got exactly this confirmed in a message given to me over 5-6 month where numbers & character in my dreams where very intense. I wrote all those down, ran it through random conversion tools (hex etc.) and what shocked me was that it obviously came from a friend who committed suicide a year prior. The outcome was his name mirrored. Then I understood that there is a connection to other dimensions and I still get messages though its slowing down. I was hit by a stroke a year ago (blood clot in my brain) and I realized there's nothing to be afraid of, because when I went into the MR scanner he, and another deceased friend was there with 2 unknown huge entities. I came out, survived and was told that I was speaking french to the doctors immediately after. I don't speak french and have no clue where that came from. I've been fascinated by this movie since it touches some of these elements .. wonder if the director have experienced something similar to mine.
I am proud to say that Interstellar is my favourite movie of all time. And whenever I say it, it puts a smile on my face. ❤❤
The whole movie is out of this world .
The concept .
Acting .
Cinematography.
Vfx
All are top notch
One major thing to keep in mind is that inside the Tesseract, Cooper wasn't time traveling. All instances in time from Murph's bedroom has been showcased in front of him. So, any kind of entropy he makes is applied to all the time periods. That's why the watch's second hand movement was visible to present day Murph even though Cooper passed the quantum data through the watch which was from the past. Same goes for the books & space toys on the bookshelf.
Just seeing and hearing the thesseract scene even with breaks and talk over is giving me so hard emotions. Story, music, word building, performance, editing, CGI,... all put so much effort into it, it hits like a brick. The story itself isnt even long or twisty at second watch, but there are so much close ups and small talk to establish emotion, so much ambience or ambienceless space it eats into the viewers emotions. Even after third or fourth watch.
Watched it these days the fifth time, directly after the forth time two weaks earlier. And beeing spoilered doesnt even ruin this film, it makes it better, the frustration of time relativity and therefore the stakes get even higher, because you start to realize how much time they are loosing with smallest mistakes or just standing around beeing impressed by the view on these alien planets.
Seeing someone analyse one of my favourite movies is next level entertainment. Great video!
This video must’ve been hard to make, your work is appreciated!
I can't get over how this movie is from 2014.
Astro physics already interested me as a child and for some reason I always thought this movie was old like Star Treck.
But yesterday I actually watched it and I'm so sad that I didn't watch it sooner. It is one of my favorite movies ever after just one watch, ugh it's great.
Just a quick more info about relativity complimenting your excelent explanation at 9:20. I'm referring to the 3 ages of Murphy as: kid Murphy, adult Murphy and older Murphy. Murphy wasn't in her adult age when Cooper was inside the Tesseract. Relative to Tesseract Cooper, Murphy was the older one. Kid Murphy became Adult Murphy right after Cooper came back from the water planet mission, the one with big waves, because that planet was closer to the black hole and made Cooper move much more quicker throught time relative to kid Murphy on Earth. Murphy was in her adult age only until he came back closer to the black hole before jumpingg into it, and, as he "fell" more and more through the black hole, adulp Murphy started to age faster and faster as Cooper travelled faster and faster to the center of the black hole. She aged enough to become old Murphy, and only stopped aging right after Cooper crossed the boundary between the mass of black hole and the tridimensional space of the tesseract. That's why she is old Murphy aboard the Cooper station when they reunite, old Murphy is the present Murphy relative to Cooper. Pretty cool, right? They nailed relativity.
Wow. I'm blown away of how well done this analysis was. Thank you for explaining it to us in a manner that is comprehensible.
This was simply beautiful. The illustration of quantum mechanics through editing is nothing short of a dream come true. Time to start a new playlist.
Every bookshelf is trying to talk to you, just you won't listen.
Im having Dark Night of the Soul for not watching this masterpiece in cinema.
I did. You missed a great visual experience. ç_ç
Not to add salt to the wound but I saw it in Imax too. what can I say you missed big on this one! But hey theres always re-release's of Nolans films in Imax!
Now that I want to travel through a black hole and fall into the tesseract to tell my younger self in 2014 to GO WATCH THIS MOVIE IN CINEMA!!!! 😭😭😭.
my best decision was to watch it in the cinema
I fucking swear im gonna rent a cinema just to see this on the big screen
Editor: How much edits?
*Director: yes*
This makes absolutely no sense
This movie will always be my all-time favorite, out of any genre. Of course there are other masterpieces like Schindler's List, The Princess Bride, The Mask of Zorro, The Walk, and others, but this one sits atop them all like a king.
Watching it in the Marbles IMAX theater was absolutely incredible, during the launch scene when Hans Zimmer's (INCREDIBLE musical producer by the way) "Stay" is at its climax and the rocket engines are firing, you could actually feel it in your seat because the entire movie theater was vibrating from the sound.
The story in this movie about the power of love and how it transcends both time and space is surreal, and the moments of tension, loss, sadness, regret, awe, realization, and wonder are all so beautifully captured. What a work of art!
Even those short clips of the movie made me cry and feel like something else I cannot describe. Interstellar is truely a masterpiece.
What struck me was how "Interstellar" is really a ghost movie, on many levels. Ghosts of time we lost with our loved ones. Ghosts of our past selves, and those of our family. And of course the actual manifestation of an invisible conscious agent interacting with the real world, which happens to be the same person as who is being interacted with. These are also elements of "A Ghost Story" another great movie from the last few years, about an actual ghost, interacting with himself. Edit: And Casey Affleck is in both movies, I just realised.
Nolan is an astro-physicist who became a movie director by accident
Nolan in his lab writing formulas «Oh shit, was tryna write the formula for interstellar travel, guess I wrote an award winning, 2 hour long movie. Better make it happen»
Lololol. You wild.
Nolan is clearly an robot sent back from the future to save us all from ourselves.
Also thanks to Kip Throne!
What a fantastic video! Your rearranged edit made it feel so much more real and I ended up catching dialog I never noticed before.
Don't get me wrong, the original movie was great, but seeing that scene play out with the past in "real time" (linear) from both sides of the book shelf made it so cohesive. Absolutely fantastic! 👌
watched interstellar twice at the cinema - the only film I have gone back to and watched it on my own the second time round to concentrate. I didn't even pick up on half the detail contained on this small youtube vid. Just loved how emotional it made me feel. Recently re-watched it hence finding this youtube channel. Simply enjoy the way I am taken elswhere. Even more of a wreck watching this now as I have two children of my own.....
I swear the tesseract scene always makes me tear up
They had some of the smartest people on the planet working on structuring the science for the movie.
And yet, a shitty ending. So crap it seems a studio thing. Sure, the guy returns 80 years after saving humankind, and "nah, this station's name is not an homage to you, dumbass".
@@persona83 bcs his daughter wrote the formula to launch that station of course it's going to be name after her
@@JSNtheArsonist Yeah, because if an equation can save mankind let's keep it secret and try to solve it alone for decades, so we can have the name.
@@TheRaretunes well technically prof brand solved the equation. Murph fixed the equation based on the quantum data she get from coop. Even if there's hundreds of physician that help her to solve the equation, she still gonna get the recognition bcs people on earth believe the quantum data came from her even though she said it came from the "Ghost" in her bedroom
@@JSNtheArsonist Who cares about the recognition. My point was that their sit on the equation the whole movie.
This flick declares to be scientifically ahead of the others but all I can see is science being reduced to something ridiculous. This is not how science works and how it's done, and neither how would have been done in similar circumstances.
I really don't care much about the whole movie message (and frankly it's not even a clear one), but the world building, and these premises are absurd. First of all a wormhole inside a star system.
imagine shooting an emotional quiet scene while the RATATATATATATA of the imax camera is constantly in your ears.
Easily my favourite film for so many reasons - and that scene in particular is so impactful that I get a lump in my throat even watching it being broken down in your video. A true masterpiece 🙌
Dude! What an excellent breakdown of the edits! Nolan has such a strong vision of every movie he has ever made he is simply outstanding!
This soundtrack is next level.
