A fan-made video is reimagining writer-director Christopher Nolan’s World War II epic Dunkirk as a black-and-white silent film. Despite the pedigree of the filmmaker, there’s no question that Nolan’s Dunkirk defied the odds at the theaters domestically and worldwide to become one of the biggest surprises at the box office in 2017.
Released smack-dab in the middle of the summer moviegoing season – a season that’s generally reserved for superhero movies, action adventures and lighter popcorn fare – Dunkirk made more than $188 million domestically and $337 million overseas for a staggering global total of more than $525 million (making it the highest grossing WWII film ever at the worldwide box office). Better yet, the film attracted enough critical acclaim to make it one of the year’s earliest awards season contenders.
