Revisit Christopher Nolan’s THE DARK KNIGHT Trilogy With 76-Minute Documentary

http://nerdist.com/revisit-christopher-nolans-the-dark-knight-trilogy-with-76-minute-documentary/

Christopher Nolan was still relatively early in his career as a filmmaker when he was hired to bring Batman back to the big screen in Batman Begins. From there, Nolan’s The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises went on to form one of the most critically successful and highest grossing superhero trilogies of all time.

In retrospect, it’s amazing that Nolan was given the freedom to reinvent Batman and his world for the big screen by ignoring all previous adaptations and putting the film itself at the forefront of all other marketing concerns. The chronicle of Nolan’s three Batman films was told in The Fire Rises, a feature length documentary that was included in The Dark Knight Trilogy: Ultimate Collector’s Edition. And now The Fire Rises has been posted online in two parts that look back on the creation of all three films.

Our very own Chris Hardwick is among the contributors to The Fire Rises, alongside Lost co-creator Damon Lindelof, Richard Roeper, Guillermo Del Toro, Paul Levitz, and legendary Batman writer and editor, Dennis O’Neil as they share an oral history of The Dark Knight trilogy and its impact on pop culture and the way that superhero movies are perceived.

Nolan himself shows up several times in the documentary to share stories about the creation of his trilogy, including the decision to include the Batmobile and why Batman just doesn’t work if he doesn’t have his signature cape and cowl. It’s a pretty engrossing way to spend 76 minutes.

Warner Bros. Takes Steps to Increase Career Opportunities for Minority Directors

Warner Bros.

Following the #OscarsSoWhite controversy, Warner Bros. has created an Emerging Film Directors Workshop to boost opportunities for new and underrepresented filmmakers in the industry.

The nine-month intensive fellowship program will help aspiring directors develop their skills and showcase their work to the film community on a greater platform.

“It’s really for anybody who is looking at the system and saying, ‘The unfair part is that I can’t even get started,’” The Hollywood Reporter reports Greg Silverman, president, creative development and worldwide production, Warner Bros. Pictures saying.

Participants of the program will be partnered with Warner Bros. Pictures executive mentors and work with them through the entire film production process. Aspiring filmmakers will pitch, write or work with a screenwriter, and develop a script for a short film that is 3-10 minutes long. Once they have a final script, the filmmakers will work with production to prep, create a budget, cast, shoot and edit with a full post-production process, with the studio covering all costs and salary for the filmmakers.

With planning for the program beginning over a year ago, Silverman says the studio wanted to bring on more diverse voices to connect with their diverse audience.

“We wanted to have more diverse voices; it’s a better way to connect with our diverse audience and with the world,” he said, while adding that the program wants to address some of the structural inequality of the business. “There were logjams way down the line before we even saw people.We wanted to start at the first step and give people a leg up, to address the system holistically.”

While ethnic minorities make up nearly 40% of the U.S. population, just 18% of directors in Hollywood are racially diverse. When it comes to gender, that number is even more startling with only 6% of women directing films in 2013.

Hopefully the efforts of Warner Bros. and the criticism around the Oscars will help to change this dynamic in Hollywood.

Right now, the studio’s inaugural class will have five filmmakers with each film being given a budget of around $100,000.
