15 Lesser known facts about Christopher Nolan's films that might come as a surprise.

1) Nolan is Someone Who Favors Practical Effects Over CGI

Trending

Christopher Nolan is famous for doing mostly practical effects, trusting reality over computer-generated imagery (CGI). An example is the fighting scene in the rotating hallway in Inception. Instead of using CGI shots, he created a big rotating setting in which the actors could perform in gravity-defying space. In The Dark Knight, he flipped an actual 18-wheeler truck upside down on the streets of Chicago. Differences exist in the impact of tangible effects and immersion for viewers.
