Interstellar
Interstellar is a 2014 epic science fiction drama film directed by Christopher Nolan, who co-wrote it with his brother Jonathan. It stars Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, Bill Irwin, Ellen Burstyn, Michael Caine, and Matt Damon. Set in a dystopian future where Earth is suffering from catastrophic blight and famine, the film follows a group of astronauts who travel through a wormhole near Saturn in search of a new home for humankind. The screenplay had its origins in a script Jonathan developed in 2007, and was originally set to be directed by Steven Spielberg. Theoretical physicist Kip Thorne was an executive producer and scientific consultant on the film, and wrote the tie-in book The Science of Interstellar. Cinematographer Hoyte van Hoytema shot it on 35 mm movie film in the Panavision anamorphic format and IMAX 70 mm. Filming began in late 2013 and took place in Alberta, Klaustur, and Los Angeles. Interstellar uses extensive practical and miniature effects, and the company DNEG created additional digital effects. Interstellar premiered in Los Angeles on October 26, 2014. In the United States, it was first released on film stock, expanding to venues using digital projectors. The film received positive reviews from critics and grossed over $681 million worldwide ($705 million after subsequent re-releases), making it the tenth-highest-grossing film of 2014. Thorne's computer-generated depiction of a black hole in the film has also received commendation from astronomers and physicists. Interstellar was nominated for five awards at the 87th Academy Awards, winning Best Visual Effects, and received numerous other accolades.
I get that, TARS. But we've got to figure something out or the people on Earth are gonna die. Think! Cooper... they didn't bring us here to change the past. Say that again. They didn't bring us here to change the past. No, they didn't bring us here at all. We brought ourselves. TARS, give me the coordinates for NASA in binary. In binary. Roger. Feeding data. "It's not a ghost." "it's gravity." Don't you get it yet, TARS? I brought myself here! We're here to communicate with the three-dimensional world. We're the bridge! I thought they chose me. - But they didn't choose me, they chose her. For what, Cooper? To save the world. All of this is one little girl's bedroom. Every moment. It's infinitely complex. They have access to infinite time and space, but they're not bound by anything! They can't find a specific place in time. They can't communicate. That's why I'm here. I'm gonna find a way to tell Murph... just like I found this moment. - How, Cooper? - Love, TARS, love. It's just like Brand said. My connection with Murph, it is quantifiable. it's the key! What are we here to do? Find how to tell her. The watch. The watch. That's it. We code the data into the movement of the second hand. TARS, translate the data into Morse and feed it to me. Translating data to Morse. Cooper, what if she never came back for it? She will. She will. Murph, I can see his car! He's coming, Murph! Okay. I'm coming down. How do you know? Because I gave it to her.
