Laugh Hard, Run Fast, Be Kind

Inside Chris Nolan's Following are two wolves. (There are also two wolves inside of Chris Nolan, but we'll get to that later.) One is a scruffy, wannabe writer who lacks self-confidence (he calls himself "Bill" but is credited as "Young Man") and the other is a smooth, coiffed and dashing thief named Cobb. These two men represent a duality. Could the difference between them simply be defined by clothing and swagger? Well, yes, in a way. And also no.

The Post is an exciting and intelligent movie about the publishing of the Pentagon Papers by The New York Times (the most influential American newspaper at the time) and The Washington Post (an upstart, mostly local paper with an ambitious editor at the time). Brilliantly directed by Steven Spielberg, the movie turns this historical event into a gripping coming of age thriller even though we all know the ending. At least I am assuming you know the ending, so spoilers ahead.

Things seem to be ramping up, especially on the conspiracy side of things. With Whispers actively hunting down Nomi after her fateful encounter with Dr. Metzger.
