I went to the theater to see "Dunkirk", I think if "Dunkirk" was filmed by Gonzalez Inari, it might make people feel more at ease.
It is also playing with structure. Inarido's structure is more about expounding the content. Structure is a part of the theme, a powerful complement, and complements each other. Nolan's structure is more about form than content. When both ditch the structure, you can see the clear difference, Inarido's "The Mistake" is still so smooth and solid, and even the American-themed "The Revenant" has an epic quality. When Nolan gave up the structure, frivolity did not come from the so-called thinking about war and human nature. If the war was to be portrayed in a documentary, Nolan's idea was correct, and it was the starting point of a great director. It's like Danny Boyle's "Jobs" took three paragraphs of the press conference and used a lot of dialogue, you can say it's boring and boring. But at least it is deconstructed from the perspective of a mature elite. It's just that Nolan gave up the advantages he was good at, and at the same time exposed his weaknesses. A good director with distinctive features occupied several high points of the movie, but when he leaned over to give up the advantages that people looked up to him, he was close to him. When watching from a distance, just like in martial arts novels, there is no trick to win. Nolan has no tricks. After his bare hands, it is the adult gymnastics on the square, not his attractive legs.
I think it has something to do with an artist's unique voice. Nolan's voice is that his structure is a structure that makes a lot of people worship him. It's a very distinctive feature that separates him from other directors, but Dunkirk lost what Nolan was good at. Even in the Dunkirk film, there is no more powerful voice based on the event.
Nolan, like the recent Luc Besson, has imagination, ideas, creativity, and his own distinctive side, but these wonderful points often fall into the depth of the story and the re-refinement of the depth, or the structure and the depth of the story. The rhythm is out of control. The art of film comes from many aspects, unlike literature only uses words, music only uses notes, film is the embodiment of synthesis, Nolan and Luc Besson obviously occupy several aspects, they are outstanding directors. But if there are two bowls of noodles, one is machine-pressed, like these exquisite directors, it's a visually gorgeous treat. The other bowl is hand-rolled noodles, but it is the taste of life. Which would you choose?
