The Father Is the Child of the Man in Dark Knight Rises

Nolan: "I wanted to throw here's another phrase at you that I wonder if this is helpful for like what he works through and he does this in all the films" The grandfather paradox is in the text of the film but  what if it is actually the child is the father of the man, Nolan asks. He says there's a way in which you could take that as a kind of meta commentary on his own cinema. 'He generates this films that undermine the political position he would like to take'
