Christopher Nolan admires Quentin Tarantino's retirement stance. The 'Oppenheimer' director explained that he can understand Tarantino's pledge to retire from filmmaking after helming 10 pictures but also acknowledges the longevity of directors such as Martin Scorsese. Christopher told the 'ReelBlend' podcast: "The truth is, I understand both points of view. "It's addictive to tell stories in cinema. It's a lot of hard work, but it's very fun.
