There's a two thousand year old Roman stone carved with five Latin words that read the same in every direction. Nolan built the entire film out of it. The organization, the villain, the security firm, the opera, even the shape of the story all come from that one square. The hero gets recruited, fights, wins, and learns at the end that the man who recruited him was himself.
Strip away the Latin and something simpler is buried underneath. There's a shot of an assassin stomping a cello, and it's there because of something Nolan does at home. There's a 747 that Nolan bought instead of rendering one. There's a car chase that shut down an entire country. And there's a villain who had to fight, walk, and speak backwards in a Russian accent.
This is the story of how Nolan spent fifteen years and two hundred million dollars turning a palindrome into a spy movie, then bet the future of cinema on it during the worst year to release anything.
