Dunkirk Review

           Clock’s Ticking

Reviewed by Mason Manuel

Leaving the theater after the showing of Dunkirk, the number one thing etched into my brain was the importance and fleeting nature of time. A constant splinter in my mind, Nolan’s use of time make me drastically aware of how fleeting seconds were, even in the most mundane of circumstances. Like his previous work in Inception, Nolan’s use of the clock in his latest proves a most powerful tool in expressing human desperation and the need for survival. This twisting of time and humanity proves Dunkirk to be quite close to a masterpiece.
