Lights in the Dusk

When I was younger I loved it for its post-Tarantino affectations, casual violence, sharp script and unconventional (to me) directorial choices. Today, I'm more impressed by its subtle characterisations, its themes of disappointment, spent-time and last chances, and the melancholic romanticism of the central relationship.

Eh, this is more like a Soderbergh speed bump on the way to the far superior "Ocean's 11".

This film is a huge influence on me and my script I wrote for my comedy of manners. It's a splendid piece of entertainment and dialogue...

This is a wonderful film. Great cast. It is a wonder to behold. The sequence between Jennifer Lopez and George Clooney in the trunk of the car is one of the sexiest ever filmed. You can feel their attraction. It is a pity that Lopez did not make more films like this where her natural toughness and beauty can counterpoint each other. Clooney is aces, as is Ving Rhames, Don Cheadle, and Albert Brooks. Soderbergh Rocks!

Totally the predecessor to Soderbergh's Ocean's 11, Out of Sight is a sleek, sophisticated caper film with a contemporary style brimming with attitude and confidence. Roles are perfectly cast and performed, the music is perfectly fitting and the film is beautifully shot and edited. Of particular note is the bar/bedroom scene between Lopez and Clooney which is just intoxicating. A meticulously crafted film.

If movies could walk, this one would strut. Who cares what we think. I guess as long as a movie believes in itself, that's all that matters.
