Filmmaker Christopher Nolan has remained steadfast in his opposition to smartphones, and he recently confirmed that he still does not use one in 2023. However, he clarified that his stance is not against technology itself. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Nolan expressed his admiration for the capabilities of technology but emphasized his personal preference for limiting distractions.
According to Nolan, constantly being on a smartphone would hinder his ability to focus on writing scripts and other work-related tasks. He believes that the incessant use of smartphones would not serve him well in those creative processes. Nolan’s dedication to his craft is evident as he continues to prioritize his work over the allure of smartphones.
This is not the first time Nolan has spoken about his aversion to cellphones. In 2012, he stated that he had never been interested in them since he moved to Los Angeles in 1997 when cellphones were not as prevalent. However, by 2020, Nolan admitted that he had succumbed a bit and acquired a flip phone, albeit using it sparingly. The director confessed that he is easily distracted and prefers not to have constant access to the internet to avoid boredom.
Notably, Nolan also abstains from using email. He values privacy and believes that working in secrecy allows him to experiment, take risks, and maintain a sense of adventure. For his recent film “Oppenheimer,” Nolan personally delivered scripts to the cast members, including actors Cillian Murphy and Robert Downey Jr.
Nolan’s commitment to his craft and his avoidance of smartphones and email are unique choices in today’s technology-driven world. Nonetheless, his distinct approach allows him to immerse himself fully in his work. As his latest film, “Oppenheimer,” hits theaters, audiences can appreciate his dedication to creating exceptional cinematic experiences.
