Dunkirk - Reversing The War Genre | Video Essay

With Dunkirk, Christopher Nolan did the unexpected. Instead of making a war film, he approached a historical event as a story of human survival. With little to no dialogue, no generals in boardrooms, no looks at the enemy and a ticking soundtrack full of tension, Dunkirk reversed what we know about the war film. In this video essay, I discuss how Christopher Nolan approached Dunkirk and why it's essential to understanding him as a genre director. This is the final video in my Christopher Nolan Marathon on the road to TENET. #Dunkirk #ChristopherNolan #Tenet Interstellar & 2001 — Human Evolution: https://bit.ly/3aJuIaA TENET | Time Runs Out: https://bit.ly/2YBv927 Follow Cortex on Social Media: https://twitter.com/CortexVideos https://www.facebook.com/CortexVideos https://www.reddit.com/r/CortexVideos https://www.instagram.com/CortexVideos Dunkirk - Reversing The War Genre | Video Essay
