On Christopher Nolan's 42nd birthday, the director now reveals movies which inspired the recently released movie "The Dark Knight Rises".Nolan had already revealed that Charles Dickens' "A tale of two cities" novel was among the few which had influenced TDKR, including J.R.R Tolkien's "The Lord of the rings" and the movie adaptation by Peter Jackson, to see how to conclude his Batman trilogy; but what were the other movies?
Look below:
HEAT
The Battle of Algiers
“No film has ever captured the chaos and fear of an uprising as vividly as this film.”
Doctor Zhivago
“The very definition of historical epic, in which the tangled emotions of its characters are set in stark relief against the grandest of revolutionary backgrounds.”
The Prince of the city
“Nobody was better at capturing the unsettling qualities of corruption and its consequence as Sidney Lumet. Not as well- known as known as “Serpico,” but Treat Williams is a revelation.”
Metropolis
“In an era when films had to communicate purely with the visual, the relationship between the themes of the story and the architecture of the setting is clear and expressive."
Blade Runner
“Simply the most memorable evocation of all that is spectacular and oppressive about the city.”
Can you see a relation between these movies and The Dark Knight Rises?
