Three films from the great director Christopher Nolan will leave the Prime Video catalog on October 31. The opportunity to (re)discover three filming anecdotes that you probably don’t know.
It goes away and it comes back. On October 31, the Prime Video platform will remove three films from its catalog and not the least. Subscribers will have to say goodbye to a sci-fi masterpiece and two of the best DC films of recent years.
You will have understood, we are obviously talking about Interstellar, The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises, released between 2008 and 2014. Three feature films which are among the highest rated in Christopher Nolan’s filmography.
The Dark Knight (2008): 4.5/5 according to spectators
Back in his Dark Knight costume in 2008, Christian Bale faced the formidable Joker, played by the unforgettable Heath Ledger. With The Dark Knight, Christopher Nolan and his brother Jonathan confirmed that we could very well make a quality and, above all, realistic superhero film.
If a large part of the spectators praised the feature film, there was one person who tried to profit from its success. And it’s the mayor of the small Turkish town of… Batman. Huseyin Kalkan, by his name, announced in 2008 that he wanted to file a complaint against Warner for using the name without their consent. But not only. He accuses the film of being responsible for the unsolved homicides in his city, as well as a high suicide rate among women. The complaint was logically unsuccessful.

The Dark Knight Rises (2012): 4.3/5 according to spectators
If the sequel, 4 years later, did not do as well in terms of spectator ratings, the fans still responded to say goodbye to Christian Bale. In this last opus which closes the Nolan trilogy, Bruce Wayne faces Bane, a supervillain played by Tom Hardy who wants to make Batman and the inhabitants of Gotham pay.
A character who might never have appeared in The Dark Knight Rises. In a recent podcast, David S. Goyer (one of the screenwriters) revealed that one of the Warner bosses insisted that Leonardo DiCaprio star in the film and that he play the Riddler, one of the most great enemies of Batman. An obvious no go on the part of the Nolans who preferred Bane, a supervillain born in the prison on the island of Santa Prisca where Bruce was also locked up several years ago.

Interstellar (2014): 4.5/5 according to spectators
Interstellar is considered one of the best science fiction films of recent years. Nolan’s feature film surprised for its poetry, its ecological message and its resolutely human story, carried by an impeccable Matthew McConaughey.
Most spectators who discovered it at the cinema in 2014 were very surprised to see actor Matt Damon appear in the second half of the film. And for good reason, he is not credited at all. A choice desired by Christopher Nolan himself. What’s even more striking is that the actor plays one of the film’s major villains. He makes the Endurance crew believe that their planet is viable (when it is not) in the hope of being rescued.
