RBR #134: “Dunkirk: Nolan’s 3 Timelines, Zero Chill”
Episode 134
Wednesday, 10 December, 2025
In this episode, we dive into Christopher Nolan’s Dunkirk—the movie that weaponizes sound design, disorientation, and narrative chaos to make you feel like you’re drowning in tension even when the characters aren’t in the water (yet). We break down the film’s infamous three timelines, why Nolan thinks clocks are a personality trait, and how the movie somehow maintains zero chill for 106 minutes straight. We also talk about Hans Zimmer’s “I hope you like panic attacks” score, Tom Hardy acting exclusively with his eyeballs, and Nolan’s ongoing war against traditional storytelling. If you’ve ever wondered why Dunkirk feels like a cinematic escape room run by a sadistic genius, this is your episode. ----more---- Thank you so much for listening!
