For 45 years I have struggled with the structure of a screenplay. From Syd Fields to Robert McKee to our dearly departed Blake Snyder, I have always felt estranged from the natural process of writing the screenplay. I cannot thank you enough for the visual representation of the 3 act structure and Nolans use of it with Interstellar. Outstanding work. I had the pleasure of meeting Blake and know he would be thrilled at your illustration. Cheers.
I've seen a lot of Interstellar breakdowns, and this one is the best yet.I feel that Analysis based on screenwriting is the best way to understand almost every aspect of the film.It's like the one category where every category eventually is explained inside of it, in a very structured order.This makes it not only easy to break it down, but also to learn and apply the same ideas on our works. Really appreciate your content!
@@hanniffydinn6019 Actually, you are an idiot. The soundtrack inspired me. It's really really good. See what I did there. If you think your subjective opinion is the only one that is right, then please become world leader in order to save us from ourselves and the differing ideas that make up human society as a whole. If humans thought like you from the beginning instead of expressing their different tastes through various art forms then much of what you see now would not exist. Think about that.
@@StudioBinder The only movie of Nolan's I can think of that doesn't follow a full save the cat structure is The Prestige. If you all get time, that would be amazing to see a breakdown of. And thanks for all this great content - it has been very helpful!
hi studio binder. I just want to say this type of videos really helps me to craft my story. So thank you for that! I also hoping that you will do more of this "save the cat" story breakdown with other movies in the future. Looking forward to it!!
I’ll go ahead and admit that I was moved to tears…especially where Cooper reunites with his beloved Murph, and she has achieved the wisdom to understand and accept him.
i never quite understood why it such an underrated film compared to his other wroks, lots of people had complains when in reaslity it has one of the best scripts brothers nolan have ever written, in terms of originality and structure (yes yes the dark knight is the best but just think about the fact that the whole interstellar script is 100% original). such important and relevant ideas regarding global warming and space exploration for the future of humanity, which sasdly not enough people talk about. and you guys summed it all up so no one can complain about the "complexity of the ending"- the main theme is literally that the science isnt what important but rather the connection between people and somtimes believing in what we dont necessarly understand yet. awesome video!
If you're planning on breaking down more films with the "Save The Cat" beat sheet, then I am excited for this blossoming new series. My suggestion is The Safdie's "Uncut Gems". #SaveSiren #mermaidmonday
I think the opening shot was Nolan telling people, non-verbally, what the plot was. A space ship in/on a dusty bookshelf... When murph said "its my ghost." I knew it was going to be cooper from the future or different dimension. I absolutely love it when directors make movies that are clever and talk to people who are paying attention.
I also picked that up and I knew where it was heading. Once the gravity well was revealed, it was confirmed that time was going to be manipulated. At that point the movie got a little boring for me actually. Compare that to 2001 A Space Odyssey - the first time you see it you have no idea what’s coming...amazing!
StudioBinder standards: No compromise with the content. By the way, I was watching the "Cornfield Chase" scene today. And hours later you put the analysis of the entire movie. You guys are telepathic. 👍👏
@@freddysamjacob363 I can't agree with that. The first time watching it I found it quite ok. An average sci-fi movie. Then I watched it again and became very bored during the long sequences of oversimplifying explanation. This gave me time to think about the essence of the movie which really boils down to Nolan showing off his visual skills whilst pretending to offer a intelligent story that lacks in any kind of thoughtfulness and offers love as the solution to all unanswered questions leaving no space for interpretation or any kind of analysis because it really isn't more than that.
This is something new. @StudioBinder making movie analysis is fun. Thanks for this and all the amazing videos you make about how moviemakers make movies, the different principles. Thanks StudioBinder.
I have a copy of the book (Save the cat) so I clicked. 17 minutes later I subscribed to this channel. Wonderful analysis and example of the beat sheet.
I've been in a rut all day trying to restructure a script for a short I've been working on for a while. This video couldn't have come at a better time, thank you!
No matter how great some one is any field, there have always been and always will be haters. Its just that the internet amplifies their voice. Ignore them.....
No question that the movie was a technical marvel and it was certainly watchable. I thought the story was a huge let-down, I loved all the in space scenes and couldn't have cared less about the father-daughter relationship. I knew exactly where it was going on 5 minutes in.
Off course Maffoo. Everyone has the right to crticise a person or a piece of work. But there is a distinction between observing something and then criticising it and making negative comments about someones work due to preconcieved opinions. Sadly the internet is full of people who deride and disrepect people ( writers, sports people, musicians, film makers etc) just for the sake of it.
I am remember watching this movie and feeling two things: the awesome ambition of the filmmaker; the conversation the movie is having with 2001: A Space Odyssey.
I had similar feelings. But I did not like at all that the movie tries to answer 2001's very intelligent questions in a very unidimensional way (despite the main character traveling between dimensions ;)).
Literally blew my mind away after I encountered the Dark night of the soul when I realized as he had to turn back reflect on the 2nd beat. 🤯 Thank you mate.
Only recently in my adulthood have I truly began to appreciate not only the heart of moving cinema, but the composers masterful work of camouflaging into the film and manipulating emotions if done right………very few composers have the talent to pull it off!
I own save the cat, even had the author visit our film school before he died, studied the beats for a bit and people hate the book but it is very accurate for the basis spine of most films. Beautiful :D
I absolutely hate that book. 1/3 filler, 1/3 old man yelling at the reader, 1/3 actual good content. Thank you for making this video and saving people the trouble reading that garbage.
What a masterpiece... Right now I’m equally impressed by Nolan’s movie and this video! Thanks a lot for this, if I knew how good this video was, I wouldn’t have left it on my watch later list for so long! I guess it’s time to binge watch the whole channel ❤️
This is a very impactful movie. To be honest I didn't understand half of it the first time I watched it;). Today is one of my favorites! Thank you for the rundown
Actually when I was watching the movie I was very sleepy because of the background music and now in 17 minutes studiobinder gave me the full understanding of this Master piece(Interstellar) and I'm very much inspired by the points and breakdown explained by studiobinder to write a script and screenplay based on those intelctuality of points.Thanks to studiobinder👍👍👍
Would y’all ever go in depth of the process of how movie scores are made and how it ties so well with the movie it’s in? This score is my favorite of all time, I can listen to it anytime of the day.
I just don't get it why critics and some other people think that the script for interstellar wasn't good enough. I mean did this film made me feel? Yes. Did I feel like the characters are one-dimensional? No. Do I think this film is great? Yes.
Love this breakdown, I've been having trouble figuring out how to properly structure my ideas and this helped. I've heard of the book before, Save the Cat, but haven't read it. Gonna try and get my hands on it.
Studiobinder you have done awesome work. You are making us a brilliant viewer and a brilliant viewer only enforce directors to make brilliant movies that's the truth.
In love with the content of this channel. Studio Binder is doing an awesome job!! Hopefully we can make films like these one day. I have many ambitious universes planned in my mind.

Interstellar is the only movie that really convinced me that there are no hopes for victory. Simply a masterpiece!
The emotional stakes were so intense in the film 👍
True, the same was perfectly done by The Dark Knight Rises, btw
This is one of the best breakdowns of my favourite film I’ve ever seen and this is amazing. Thank you!
Glad you liked it!
The thing with Interstellar is, it gets better with each viewing.
Like every Christopher Nolan Film out there.
