10 Great Under The Radar Movies Still To Come In 2016
3. De Palma
While Brian De Palma has any number of classic movies under his belt – Carrie, Scarface, The Untouchables – he has a ton of underrated or unsung classics too. He’s praised for his visual storytelling and style, and also bashed for “ripping off” Hitchcock or the extreme violence of his movies.
His fans are in for a treat with De Palma, a feature-length documentary where the auteur talks the audience through his entire filmography. It’s a fascinating, in-depth look at the man’s work in his own words, and he’s brutally honest about his own successes and failures; both as a filmmaker and a person.
While sitting through a feature-length interview interspersed with clips might not sound terribly exciting, for fans of his man’s work – or movie making in general – it essential viewing.
