“It’s on the sort of contextual level that most audiences won’t pick up on. But yeah I think it’s deliberately in there… I mean look, I can’t tell everyone to take Psilocybin mushrooms before they watch my films. But at the end of the day I can only make what is true to my tastes as an audience member and when I watch a film, any film, I take shrooms. That IS how I experience cinema, and I’m designing for that experience… based purely on what can be deduced from box office I have to assume that the films also work for square audiences, but I wouldn’t know that first hand”

-Christopher Nolan, in a recent press conference discussing the influence of psychedelics on his Dark Knight films
