The Killing of a Sacred Deer. Mise-en-scène will tell you what you need to know! I liked The Lobster more. Colin Farrell is slowly sneaking up the ranks of favorite actors.

Dunkirk
Dunkirk. It is tremendous. Couldn’t look away for even a sliver of a moment. Out of all of Christopher Nolan movies I’ve seen, I’d rank this at the top. One thing that did him a favor is that the dialogue is so minimal. A trim, direct story so he can focus on the construction. I love the layered stories – the boat scenes being my favorites – that are racing to meet at the end, which we know with hindsight is only a beginning.
I haven’t updated my Christopher Nolan power rankings in a while, so…
- Dunkirk
- Interstellar
- Memento
- The Prestige
- The Dark Knight
- The Dark Knight Rises
- Batman Begins
- Insomnia
- Following
- Inception
That feels right for now.
