An older man listens to Bill's story about being a callow writer who likes to follow strangers around London, observing them. One day, a glib and self-confident man whom Bill has been following confronts him. He's Cobb, a burglar who takes Bill under his wing and shows him how to break and enter. They burgle a woman's flat; Bill gets intrigued with her (photographs are everywhere in her flat). He follows her and chats her up at a bar owned by her ex-boyfriend, a nasty piece of work who killed someone in her living room with a hammer. Soon Bill is volunteering to do her a favor, which involves a break-in. What does the older man know that Bill doesn't?
Leave your thoughts about Following.
| Film Journal InternationalChris GrundenChristopher Nolan has crafted a spare but gripping black-and-white neo-noir debut feature that features some classic elements of the genre. |
| Q Network Film DeskJames Kendricka harbinger of things to come, an exercise in the kind of temporal gymnastics, sleight-of-hand shifts in perspective, and rigorous insights into the dark depths of human nature that have defined Nolan's later films |
| PanoramaLouis-Jérôme CloutierFollowing est un exercice de style et d'ingéniosité qui nous rappelle [Memento] tout en ayant un cachet bien particulier. |
| NetflixJames RocchiLow-budget debut from Memento's director subtly transposes you to a sinful urban nightmare. |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzThe film leaves a good impression on the viewer as one that is ably directed, written, acted, and photographed. |
| Nitrate OnlineElias SavadaChristopher Nolan's 1999 debut feature becomes Memento-on-training-wheels. |
| VarietyDennis HarveyClimactic triple-cross is a satisfying payoff, though scenarist-helmer Nolan doesn’t really sock across any possible point of emphasis – black humor is soft-pedaled, suspense just middling, and the character writing keeps classic fall guy Bill a bit too blank-slate to incur much sympathy. |
| Miami HeraldPhoebe FlowersAs a psychological mystery it plays persuasively if not profoundly. Nolan relishes the sheer nastiness he keeps stirred up, unabated for 70 minutes. You can, too, provided you don't ask more of it. |
| San Francisco ChronicleMick LaSalleThat the movie succeeds as thoroughly as it does -- getting deeper and creepier as it goes along -- is evidence of a far-seeing creative imagination. Nolan is a compelling new talent. |
| The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckImpressively acted by the unknown cast, and eerily shot in black and white, Nolan successfully creates his own distinctive cinematic world, leaving en route a trail of objects which may or may not have any meaning. |
