“I’ve always thought of [screenwriting] as describing a movie on paper, that’s all. There are scripts I’ve read, or once did, by favorite writers, that have never been made into movies, but I feel like I’ve seen them. You should be able to “see” the movie when you read a script, even though there aren’t actors, there’s no music … but somehow it’s washed over you as if there were.”

    The Limey

    THE LIMEY

    STEVEN SODERBERGH United States, 1999

    In Terence Stamp and Peter Fonda, this fish-out-of-water revenge yarn sets two icons of the British New Wave and New Hollywood on a thrilling collision course. Marked by a stylistic playfulness and wicked wit, The Limey is a slinkily assured neo-noir that stands among Steven Soderbergh’s very best.
