The most promising part is that one of the fighters is Gary Busey. Word is it’s one long fight scene with a voiceover by two philosophers. What I’d really like to see is her student film THE SET-UP, a 20–minute short that supposedly deconstructs action. So in honor of that I decided it was time to go back and watch the ones I haven’t seen before. But there’s more to her than we paid attention to before. Now she’s reborn with a great movie at the top of her IMDB profile and a place in history.ĭon’t get me wrong, she still directed POINT BREAK. So now she’s pretty close to a household name, she’s not just that legendary female director of action movies who for a short time had the filmatic chops to match or better her testacled counterparts.

Or at least that she’s a woman, she won the Oscar, she directed THE HURT LOCKER, and that business about her ex-husband, whatsisdick.

The Oscars this year performed a courageous service: they taught the world who Kathryn Bigelow was.
