Although theyre all very different from hisTetsuofilms, they also play around with cinematic conventions in unusual ways.
As far as were concerned,Sneakersis arguably one of the best thrillers of that decade.
A satire and a very funny one,Stay Tunedworks on two levels, and works very well.
Its a tense, dark drama that makes poignant switch about the futility of war.
It really is one of the 90s most unfairly overlooked comedies.
Its an intelligent movie, that makes its switch without over-egging them.
Director Robert Mandel, incidentally, also helmedF/X.Thought youd like to know that.
Co-starring Jeff Goldblum, its a movie about an uncover cop on the surface.
But this undercover cop is targeting a major drugs operation in Los Angeles.
Originally two hours long,Dust Devilwas brutally edited to just 87 minutes before release.
Fortunately, a directors cut was released years later, which restored much of the excised footage.
Mystifyingly,Trespassdidnt do particularly well at the box office, even though critics were highly favourable towards it.
The movie is a short one, although it still feels just a little stretched.

Look out too for a cameo from the late, great Ian Dury in an early scene.
