While discussing 'darkness and death' with Christopher Nolan, New York Times has gotten its hands on new stills for The
Dark Knight.
The Dark Knight Stills
Besides offering new stills from The Dark Knight, the report over at New York Times offers a great report on Mr. Nolan's style, and why his unchanged approach has helped the new Batman films to become the darkest of the franchise.
Yet Mr. Nolan, 37, has barely changed his approach to filmmaking since his 2000 indie-smash “Memento,” the film noir in reverse starring Guy Pearce that Mr. Nolan’s brother, Jonathan, dreamed up, and Christopher Nolan made for $5 million. “A movie is a movie,” he says. So he’s still scribbling new dialogue on the set, improvising camera moves as he goes, letting his actors decide when it’s time to move on and otherwise racing through each day as if his money might run out. It’s just that his jazz combo of a crew has mushroomed into a philharmonic — with whole new sections of prosthetics artists, special-effects wizards and so on. “But we’re still all riffing off of him,” Mr. Pfister says.
