]]> Just Mike and Keir, a couple of bros, discussing Steven Soderbergh’s bro-fest, “Ocean’s Eleven.” The star-studded caper just happens to be his eleventh movie, too—what a Soderbergh move to make the stars align like that! It makes us both want to gaze dreamily at the Bellagio fountain… Keir’s one-sentence summary: After his release from prison, professional thief Danny Ocean assembles a crew of ten other pros to steal $150 million from three Las Vegas casinos—even though for him it’s not really about the money, but emasculating the casino owner his ex-wife, Tess, has fallen for. Join us next week on the Filmographers Podcast, when we’ll discuss what Soderbergh did with all the loot from “Ocean’s Eleven.” (Spoiler: he wrote a manifesto and made an art film.) Don’t forget to subscribe and review! Just try not to be as confused as Rex Reed was when he reviewed “Ocean’s Eleven.” The Filmographers Podcast false No 4217 11 full Traffic Traffic https://thefilmographerspodcast.podbean.com/e/traffic/ https://thefilmographerspodcast.podbean.com/e/traffic/#comments Tue, 21 May 2024 00:01:00 -0500 thefilmographerspodcast.podbean.com/eb1b6dd4-8a9b-358f-8c04-512bdc5fa86b 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.”

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.

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.
