When we heard the news that Christopher Nolan's latest film was going to be 107 minutes in length we were stunned. Here's a director known for epics, his excess if you will. Wasn't 'Dunkirk' supposed to be this summer's epic? A WWII Christopher Nolan movie running for just 107 minutes? The last film Nolan directed that was under 2 hours? "Insomnia," way back in 2002. Every movie since then has been over 120 minutes or more, much more.
