Cillian Murphy highlighted in Nolan film review and viral 2015 music video

British director Christopher Nolan’s recent trilogy—often referred to as “La odisea”—includes the films Tenet, Oppenheimer and a third work that explores themes of civilization’s end. The analysis notes Nolan’s long‑standing fascination with time, citing earlier movies such as Memento, Inception and Interstellar, and highlights Cillian Murphy’s performance as physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer in the biopic.

Separately, a 2015 music video for Paul Hartnoll’s solo single “The Clock” has resurfaced online. The video features Murphy in a series of period costumes—from a medieval figure to a caveman—while the song’s concept centers on the passage of time. The clip, largely forgotten until recent social‑media rediscovery, has drawn attention for its contrast with Murphy’s later Oscar‑winning role in Oppenheimer.
