Classics: Interstellar - 10th Anniversary
Cinema Forum Groningen
Nieuwe Markt 1, 9712KN Groningen GroningenChristopher Nolan's (Oppenheimer) mighty sci-fi epic is already a decade old. A great excuse to revisit the masterpiece on our very biggest screen.
You could say that Christopher Nolan has pretty much created his own genre. The director of Memento, The Dark Knight trilogy and Inception makes films that look like blockbusters, but don't aim to make you sit back relaxed and set your mind at zero. On the contrary. Nolan's films are antidotes to numbness. Visual spectacle for people who like to think. In this respect, Interstellar is a high point in his oeuvre.
Our time on earth seems to be over, so a group of explorers embark on the most important mission in human history. They set out to find a place in space where humanity can survive. Matthew McConaughey, messiah and pioneer in one, is one of the astronauts going on this quest. Filmed dazzlingly by Dutch cameraman Hoyte van Hoytema (Her, Dunkirk), Interstellar is a mighty science fiction epic that puts Nolan filmmaker Stanley Kubrick on top as king of space operas.
