Is that really up to Nolan? I don't know anything about the industry but is a director in charge of making sure everyone is credited?
He's also a producer in all his films. He definitely has the clout and oversight to ensure its done. But he's also a luddite and so it's not natural for his brain to consider things like that. Remember, this is a guy that doesn't even have a mobile phone.
As a director and writer, he wants his name to to be seen, to tell people it's his film. As a producer, he makes sure the actors appear in the correct order. After that, it's someone else's problem.
Surely as an actor and director, those people that were integral to achieving his vision getting the recognition they deserve should, ordinarily, be his problem?
Yes. Typing their names into the credits roll however, isn't.
I'm sure most studios have an unpaid intern for that.
Which is why we're in this mess.
