Christopher Nolan Planted 500 Acres of Corn for Interstellar

Paramount Pictures

Christopher Nolan is considered one of the top cutting-edge directors. The director has achieved critical and marketable success thanks to color systems throughout his career.

Among all the rates, one of the most prominent aspects of the great director is his penchant for practical depictions beyond CGI. The director has embraced practicality in his films on colorful occasions and one of his most notable films was for the cornfield in Interstellar.

Christopher Nolan is one of a number of pen pals who embrace practicality rather than computer plates. All of his major filmography including The Dark Knight, Dunkirk, etc have been consistent with this idea, but in Interstellar the director exceeded his standard by growing factual crops for Cooper’s farm.

The director revealed that Paltan covered 500 acres of mud for a more violent and authentic feel. He enlisted the help of Zack Snyder, who initially collected 100 acres of mud for Man of Steel. The filmmaker’s $100,000 adventure to grow mud in western Canada, outside Calgary, eventually came to fruition following the film’s massive success.

It worked and turned a huge profit. By the most conservative estimate, he earned $162,000 by dealing with leftover slime that wasn’t destroyed during filming.

Nolan has always been known for trying to go too far in presenting stylish themes. And in fact, after the film’s success at the box office, the director mentioned that he eventually made a good amount of profit from dealing with the sludge. “Eventually, we got a perfect crop and made a plutocrat out of it,” he said.

In a world where CGI takes the lead in depictions, Christopher Nolan has been called right-wing. Despite the immense love and success of his craft, the director has always been keen on practical objects rather than computer plates.

Nolan has remained faithful to his bias towards truly practical items, as his systems have become more complex and innovative over time. The most recent example is the destruction of a 747 airplane flight for the movie Tenet.

As Oppenheimer’s released yesterday, reports claimed that the director recreated the nuclear explosion without the help of CGI, believing that the blast would be safer than a factual nuclear explosion. As he told Total Film, the director expressed early on the challenges he faced in completing the task.
