Christopher Nolan's Inception won four Academy Awards Sunday, a very different Oscar night than the director had 10 years ago, before all the dream-entering, time-bending flights of fancy and spins through Gotham City with the Caped Crusader.
In 2001, when Gladiator was slashing its way to a best-picture win, Nolan's noir thriller Memento had just opened in the USA, featuring a man (Guy Pearce) with a form of amnesia that renders him incapable of storing new memories and a pair of narratives, one of them told in reverse. And now, Nolan is celebrating the release of a 10th anniversary Blu-ray for that breakthrough film.
In 2005, Warner Bros. and director Christopher Nolan rebooted the Batman franchise with Batman Begins, taking the character back to his dark and gritty roots. Central to this new grounded take was Batman Begins‘ stellar cast.

Seriously. The man is a genius. I think he's one of (if not THE) biggest shining beacons of hope in Hollywood these days. He's quite possibly my favorite director around today (at least real close to the top--hell I think he does top it). And also one of my favorites of all time. He'll definitely go down as one of the greats.
Memento stills stands as one of my favorite movies of all time. I'd say it easily breaks my top 10. Up there with things like Pulp Fiction and 12 Angry Men and so on.
