Films shot on film have higher resolution and better color rendering in the video format. So if you want to make a film that looks real, that looks realistic, film photography is by far the best way to simulate it with the naked eye. Therefore, film is a very important medium that can be used.
Digital photography is especially suitable for certain styles of movies, cartoons or movies with strong colors, etc. But I think that if you want to keep the original appearance of the world as seen by the naked eye, film is the best choice if you want to make a movie with a delicate and vivid visual experience.
I (Nolan) feel that, mostly because of economic and industrial issues, film is undervalued, which is not a good thing at all. Digital distribution has advantages in many ways, not least maintaining the consistency of film quality that film is difficult to achieve. The best form of viewing a finished film is still well-maintained film. I think it’s very important for film creators to recognize that and maintain that format.
