Stephen Soderbergh is having the best year of his career. “Erin Brockovich,” released in March, has been raking in the cash and is predicted to do well in awards season. But he’s about to upstage himself with ANOTHER film at the end of December: the sprawling war-on-drugs drama “Traffic.”Social media Instagram @thefilmographers Twitter/X @filmographerpod Letterboxd @filmographers YouTube @TheFilmographersPodcast Website: https://filmographerspodcast.com/ Credits Keir Graff & Michael Moreci,

Erin Brockovich

2024/05/14

Steven Soderbergh is on an artistic and critical winning streak, and now, as the new millennium begins, he’s about to finally find box-office success again . . . and maybe win an Oscar, too. (If only he can beat that pesky Steven Soderbergh for Best Director.)

The Limey

2024/05/07

In 1999, as many of his peers take Hollywood by storm, Steven Soderbergh returns to his low-budget indie roots with “The Limey.” Will he maintain his career momentum or succumb to the malaise that defined most of his 1990s efforts? The answer is . . . complicated. Follow the Filmographers Podcast on your favorite platform and don’t forget to give us ALL the stars! Social

Out of Sight

2024/04/30

“Out of Sight” (1998) was Soderbergh’s seventh theatrical feature and his first great film. Keir and Mike are excited. Are YOU excited? You’d better be. Because there are few perfect movies in this world . . . and this is one of them.Social media Instagram @thefilmographers Twitter/X @filmographerpod Letterboxd @filmographers YouTube @TheFilmographersPodcast Website: https://filmographerspodcast.com/ Credits Keir Graff & Michael Moreci, hosts Kevin Lau, producer Gompson, theme music Cosmo

Gray's Anatomy

The Filmographers ·

2024/04/23

In 1997, Steven Soderbergh released not one but TWO films that failed to find an audience. The first was Schizopolis, which we covered in last week's episode. Gray’s Anatomy, a kind of concert film for monologuist Spalding Gray, was the second. Despite their lack of commercial success, both movies were extremely important to the filmmaker’s growth. But, alas, only one showcases Spalding Gray zestfully saying "macular pucker" more times than anyone probably needs to hear. Social media: Instagram

The Underneath

2024/04/09

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?Social media Instagram @thefilmographers Twitter/X @filmographerpod Letterboxd @filmographers YouTube @TheFilmographersPodcast Website: https://filmographerspodcast.com/ Credits Keir Graff & Michael Moreci, hosts Kevin Lau, producer Avram Gleitsman, theme music Cosmo Graff,

King of the Hill

The Filmographers ·

2024/04/02

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.Social media Instagram @thefilmographers Twitter/X @filmographerpod Letterboxd @filmographers YouTube @TheFilmographersPodcast Website: https://filmographerspodcast.com/ Credits Keir Graff & Michael Moreci, hosts Kevin Lau, producer Avram Gleitsman, theme music Cosmo Graff,

Kafka

The Filmographers ·

2024/03/26

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.Social media Instagram @thefilmographers Twitter/X @filmographerpod Letterboxd @filmographers YouTube @TheFilmographersPodcast Website: https://filmographerspodcast.com/ Credits Keir Graff & Michael Moreci, hosts Kevin Lau, producer Avram Gleitsman,

2024/03/18

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.Social media Instagram @thefilmographers Twitter/X @filmographerpod Letterboxd @filmographers YouTube @TheFilmographersPodcast Website: https://filmographerspodcast.com/ Credits Keir Graff & Michael Moreci, hosts Kevin Lau, producer Avram Gleitsman, theme
