1000 tulosta hakusanalla Christopher Fifield
Inheritor of a magical stone, Christopher finds only the philosophical frustration of owning a glorious power that is impotent in the face of sorrow and suffering. To find answers to his questions, he journeys to the Mountain of God, meeting along the way friendship and wisdom, enemies and death. Companions offer their own answers -- from the mystical to the nihilistic -- and in the end the "answer" of God may not be the kind of answer Christopher wants.
An investigation into Christopher Columbus and the Jews who participated in the discoveries by the Spanish and Portuguese.
Il secondo capitolo della saga di Christopher. Succederanno molte cose, guerre, amori impossibili, alleanze nascoste verranno alla luce
Christopher Nolan is the writer and director of Hollywood blockbusters like The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises, and also of arthouse films like Memento and Inception. Underlying his staggering commercial success however, is a darker sensibility that questions the veracity of human knowledge, the allure of appearance over reality and the latent disorder in contemporary society. This appreciation of the sinister owes a huge debt to philosophy and especially modern thinkers like Friedrich Nietzsche, Sigmund Freud and Jacques Derrida. Taking a thematic approach to Nolan’s oeuvre, Robbie Goh examines how the director’s postmodern inclinations manifest themselves in non-linearity, causal agnosticism, the threat of social anarchy and the frequent use of the mise en abyme, while running counter to these are narratives of heroism, moral responsibility and the dignity of human choice. For Goh, Nolan is a ‘reluctant postmodernist’. His films reflect the cynicism of the modern world, but with their representation of heroic moral triumphs, they also resist it.
