'Interstellar,' 'Labyrinth' and Other Films Inspired by the Mind-Bending Art of M.C. Escher
“I’m very inspired by the prints of M.C. Escher,” director Christopher Nolan told The Daily Beast in an interview published yesterday. The Dutch graphic artist’s inspiration can be seen throughout his new film Interstellar, which envisions the multiple dimensions of space like an interactive version of Escher’s most famous lithograph, “Relativity”(above). Over the past 30 years, Escher, whose artistic career spanned from 1922 to 1969, has become a go-to visual reference for cinematic fantasy worlds that exist outside normal time and space.

'Interstellar': A Physicist Explains That Crazy Ending
Christopher Nolan’s sci-fi epic, which had a strong opening weekend, touted the accuracy of the basic physics behind its story. McConaughey’s character, Cooper, ends up in a massive black hole, which holds a gigantic bookshelf that allows him to communicate, via Morse Code, with a past version of his daughter, Murph. The ideas of time dilation and visiting the vicinity of the black hole, and how that would sort of send you into the future, and the actual appearance of the black hole and of the wormhole — this was all very respectable, good science.

A Brief History of Christopher Nolan's Crazy Love Affair With Tea
The mind-bending films of Christopher Nolan are fodder for endless discussion, but the director himself has proven somewhat difficult for writers assigned to profile him. Serious-minded and driven, Nolan rarely offers insight into his personal life, and there are few obvious eccentricities or weaknesses that can help define him. As frequent collaborator Michael Caine will tell you, Nolan keeps a flask of Earl Grey tea in the deep pockets of his tweed jacket at all times, and is constantly sipping from it, no matter the circumstance.

UPDATE: Christopher Nolan Denies Taking a Swipe at Marvel Movies
UPDATE: Tonight, in response to the below story, posted earlier today, Christopher Nolan sent us the statement, “I would never say someone else’s film isn’t ‘a real film’. The quote is inaccurate.”While the rest of America hooted and hollered when Tony Stark and his pals munched on shawarma in the post-credit sequence of The Avengers, very serious filmmaker Christopher Nolan likely sipped from his trusty tea flask and frowned. Nolan, who helped launch the latest era of superhero films with his grim Dark Knight trilogy, is evidently not a fan of silly codas at the end of big budget comic book movies.

Christopher Nolan Says He Doesn't Have an Email Address
Good luck getting Christopher Nolan to read your theories about the end of Interstellar or Inception. In a new profile published in the New York Times on Thursday, it was revealed that Nolan does not have his own personal email address, and relies on stacks of emails that are printed out for him every morning by his wife and producing partner, Emma Thomas. Perhaps the avoidance of modern technology should come as no surprise for a man who abhors using digital effects andstill shoots his movies on film , but there is still something remarkable about the quirk. After all, how does he log in to watch streaming Netflix video on his iPhone?
