Netflix Watch Instantly Pick of the Week - 3/5/12


Following

Before there was Inception, before there was The Dark Knight and Batman Begins, before there was even a Memento, there was Following. Christopher Nolan's feature-length film debut, Following is a neo-noir British film, a story about a writer who follows people and watches them for inspiration, and of course ends up following the wrong person. Despite the financial limitations of this film, much of Nolan's style and handiwork is evident from the get-go, including the non-linear structure of the plot that now seems synonymous with his style of storytelling. This a great little movie and it's very interesting to watch it now, as today we all know Christopher Nolan as one of our biggest filmmakers working right now, but once upon a time, just like many other people, he was a struggling writer/director making a movie with his friends during their spare time - it's just rare that the results happen to be this good.
