This week, we discuss two classic films from American auteur directors.
The first is Blow Out (1981), a neo-noir mystery thriller film written and directed by Brian De Palma and starring John Travolta. Quentin Tarantino praises De Palma as the "greatest director of his generation" and cites Blow Out as one of his three favourite films that he would take to a desert island.
The second is The Killing of a Chinese Bookie (1976), a neo-noir crime film written and directed by John Cassavetes and starring Ben Gazzara. The film received mixed reviews upon its initial release, but has developed a cult following since.
