Who is Soderbergh? Currently Hollywood's hottest hot shot,
Soderbergh burst onto the independent scene with his provocative,
multi-award winning feature debut sex, lies and videotape in 1989.
With the film world seemingly at his feet the guy from Baton Rouge
committed critical and commercial hara-kiri, producing a black and
white film about the life of writer Franz Kafka that fell foul of
studios and audiences alike. The critics liked it though and they
were to stay with him through a lean period, which produced
increasingly personal, cine-literate projects which very few people
saw. Out of favour in Tinseltown, Soderbergh continued to plough
his own furrow, producing numerous notable Indie pics along the
way. Though disillusioned with his craft, it was arguably during
this period that he produced some of his best work. Thankfully the
head honchos at Universal had kept Soderbergh's number on speed
dial and when a director was needed to give a little sparkle to Out
Of Sight, Soderbergh got the call. Back in the big time - but very
much on his own terms - the rest as they say is history for the
self-proclaimed luckiest bastard you ever saw. As well as an
introductory essay, this Pocket Essential reviews and analyses each
of Soderbergh's films. There's a handy reference section listing
all the Soderbergh related publications- and there ain't many- and
a full filmography including Soderbergh's tireless work as a
producer and cameraman.
