The man who recreated “Batman” and spread its awesomeness further. The man who made the entire Hollywood shake with his dream-dream movie. Yes, we are talking about Christopher Nolan, which of course you would have apparently known by seeing the title. Most of his films are characterized by their complex narrative structures, morally ambiguous characters, and strong connection to film noir.

Post by MoviesDrop.

Mr.Nolan loves, not just his movies, but also other movies and he is a big fan of James Bond and Stanley Kubrick. I was surprised to see the list of movies he admired, most of them being Science Fiction genre. Below I have mentioned his top 10 Favorite movies (according to IMDb).
