Interstellar

'Interstellar' is often touted as one of Christopher Nolan's best movies, and it's not hard to see why.

The 2014 picture, which stars Matthew McConaughey, Jessica Chastain and Anne Hathaway, sees a former NASA astronaut attempt to find a new habitable planet after Earth is deemed a lost cause.

Summing up humanity's actions that led to the world's difficult predicament, the Oscar-winning director said: "It's very straightforward: selfishness and cowardice."
