Twelve years before Inception made almost a billion at the box office, Christopher Nolan made essentially the same movie for six grand. Inspired by a real life burglary at his own apartment , he wrote a nonlinear thriller about a manipulative thief named Cobb.
To make it happen on a pocket change budget, Nolan shot on cheaper black and white film stock. He rehearsed with unpaid friends for six months , which allowed them to nail scenes in a single take while filming on the streets without permits on Saturdays.
Following established the parallel timelines and the exact protagonist archetype that would define his blockbuster career. Rejected by the British film scene , this guerrilla masterpiece found its audience at Slamdance and launched a meteoric rise that took Nolan to The Dark Knight in less than ten years.
