He is to be awarded the Jaeger-LeCoultre Glory to the Filmmaker award at this year’s 74th Venice Film Festival. The award celebrates a filmmaker who is considered to have made an original contribution to innovation in contemporary cinema.
He sure has made a lot of great films over the years. Thoughts on him? and your top 3?
The Hit (1984)
High Fidelity (2000)
Dangerous Liaisons (1988)

Philomena
The Queen
High Fidelity
HM - The Grifters
He's okay. Doesn't really do much at all to separate himself from the pack and has seemed to get bogged down in nothing but (mostly failed) Oscar bait recently.

1. The Hit is a beautiful, beautiful movie.
2. Dangerous Liaisons
3. The Queen
He's been doing cheap fluff recently. But he made two of the best films of the 80's.

mary reilly (yup , screw the haters!) Mary Reilly? That's a surprise! I find this movie absolutely fascinating ! Love the gothic and stylish atmosphere, and the cinematography. Julia Roberts gives a beautiful and heartflt performance despite the weak irish accent . John Malkovich is pretty solid too . Stepehen Frears has truly created a understated period piece . One of the most underrated cinematic gems of 90's. |
