The Filmographers

Generic greeting! Short informational introduction including facts such as name and release year of movie (Schizopolis, 1996) and its director (Steven Soderbergh). Labored joke and exhortation to listen!

All meta kidding aside, we’ve arrived at one of the most crucial films in Soderbergh’s long career—it’s the movie no one wanted, but the one he needed. Turns out, it’s pretty good.

While many of his peers are finding their footing, Steven Soderbergh seems to be losing his grip. Some directors never get a second chance, much less a third or a fourth. With “The Underneath” (1995), is time running out?

Soderbergh’s sophomore effort was a critical and commercial dud that made the producers’ money disappear as if by magic. Will the 30-year-old director bounce back with 1993’s “King of the Hill”? Well . . . it’s complicated.

Steven Soderbergh decides to follow his smash-hit debut with a black-and-white movie, set in Prague, about the author who puts the A's in alienation, anxiety, and absurdity. We’ve all heard of sophomore slumps, but “Kafka” (1991) is really something.

Steven Soderbergh wrote 1989's “Sex, Lies, and Videotape” in eight days and shot it in one month for $1.2 million dollars—and took Cannes by storm. It was both the beginning of a brilliant career and the dawn of a new era for independent film.
