The \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ekey to this is provided by the magic tricks script in \u003ci\u003eThe Prestige\u003c\/i\u003e.

The analysis not only shows how outstanding Nolan's films \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eare, but they also prove to be surprisingly political. Other key topics in this analysis: the attack on the Kiev Opera house in \u003ci\u003eTenet\u003c\/i\u003e and the Russian war against Ukraine in 2022; the references in \u003ci\u003eInception\u003c\/i\u003e on Andrei Tarkovsky's \u003ci\u003eSolaris\u003c\/i\u003e; the relation of the dead female characters in Nolan's films to Edgar Allan Poe's \u003ci\u003eThe Philosophy of Composition\u003c\/i\u003e; in Nolan's later films, the canary birds of \u003ci\u003eThe Prestige\u003c\/i\u003e transformed into planes; the escape from earth in \u003ci\u003eInterstellar\u003c\/i\u003e complemented by the evacuation in \u003ci\u003eDunkirk\u003c\/i\u003e; the interdependencies between \u003ci\u003eInterstellar\u003c\/i\u003e and Zack Snyder's \u003ci\u003eMan of Steel\u003c\/i\u003e; neoliberalism reflected in Michael Mann's thriller \u003ci\u003eThief\u003c\/i\u003e; the allusions in \u003ci\u003eTenet\u003c\/i\u003e on the James Bond film \u003ci\u003eSkyfall\u003c\/i\u003e by Sam Mendes.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eKonrad Kirsch is a PhD in literature and an enthusiastic viewer of films.
