Christopher Nolan's FOLLOWING (1998) makes UK Blu-ray debut with a stacked edition from 101 Films!

CHRISTOPHER NOLAN’S
FOLLOWING (1998) 

101 Films presents Christopher Nolan's debut feature film Following (1998), released on Blu-ray in the UK for the first time. Prior to the huge success the director would achieve with his genre defining Dark Knight Trilogy and mind-bending blockbusters Inception (2008), Interstellar (2014) and Tenet (2020), Nolan took on directing, writing, editing and production duties in his London set neo-noir. 

Shot with no budget for one day a week over the course of a year and employing his now trademark non-linear structure, Nolan produced an independent classic, providing a thrilling introduction to one of modern cinema's great visionaries.

Title 030 on the 101 Films Black Label, this limited-edition release features brand new interviews with Director Christopher Nolan, actors Jeremy Theobald and Lucy Russell, Producer Emma Thomas, Editor Gareth Heal, Composer David Julyan and frequent collaborator Jonathan Nolan. Also produced especially for this release are a ‘locations revisited’ short film featuring actors Jeremy Theobald and Lucy Russell, and a new commentary with actor Jeremy Theobald and film critic James Mottram, Christopher Nolan's short film Doodlebug, beautiful newly commissioned artwork with reversible sleeve and a booklet with new writing on the film.
