That's a good point - I don't think I've ever seen Nolan fetishize women, playing up their sexuality when it isn't necessary, and I respect him hugely for that.
And I do think that he generally gives women interesting emotions to play, acting wise. But when there are so many male supporting characters in his films, it's a little disappointing to see this repetition of the dead wife/love interest as a motivation for a male character.
