Christopher Nolan is one of those rare filmmakers who creates experimental, intellectual, yet deeply heartfelt, original films that are commercially successful. He rose to prominence with his low-budget, neo-noir crime thriller, Following (1998) and has since never looked back. A key aspect of Nolan’s films is how he treats the times. Speaking about which Nolan turns 51 today. Without any further pause, we take a look at five of his timeless creations.
