During the career retrospective, Nolan also described how he was at first scared ****less when Heath Ledger first started playing the Joker in The Dark Knight.
He said of the actors work on the film: [Ledger] had such a unique way of moving that hed worked out that was so unpredictable in its cadence
the way he spoke, you never knew whether what was going to come out of his mouth would be very high of very low. Its very unpredictable and Ive watched a lot of people try to do that kind of thing since hes done it and I, Ive never seen anyone pull that off. I mean he, it was very unique and the first time he did it for me I was scared ****less of it.
Nolan added: I was like, I dont, I dont know what people are going to think, I was imagining a much more traditional, you know, sense of it. But I can remember, watching the crew respond the first time he really used that voice and really talked and everybody could feel that he was doing something very special.
