  My man-crush for Chris Pratt is obvious and one he didn’t help when replying to me on twitter with a few nice words and an ‘awesome’ (fanboy, sue me). Damn you Chris, damn you. My first real exposure to the Man was in the hugely successful Guardians of the Galaxy as Star Lord and not in Parks and Recreatinon which …

 For a film set in the far reaches of space, Interstellar happens to have a certain stylistic link to a previous Christopher Nolan film. And that’s in the audio department.
