    As Elmore Leonard adaptations go, I prefer Out of Sight and Jackie Brown. But Get Shorty remains a delight. If you ever want to explain to someone what a movie star performance is, just show them the clip of Travolta walking up the restaurant steps to beat up Gandolfini.

    BLACK BAG: Fucking fantastic. Soderbergh’s Bond film except he decides to make a THIN MAN movie halfway through. This is top-tier Soderbergh, right next to OUT OF SIGHT and KING OF THE HILL. Fassbender and Blanchett fucking KILL it. Everyone is phenomenal. Best time at the movies this year.

    I love a movie with a central premise that can only work if the casting is absolutely perfect. Clooney is maybe the only actor on earth charming and handsome enough for Out of Sight to make any sense at all.

    Books to film 📚=🎞️ Out of Sight (1996) by Elmore Leonard was adapted to film by S. Soderbergh in 1998. As is often the case the novel takes more time to develop characters, but the film uses flashbacks to shape the players. The neo-noir atmosphere enhances both works. 👀🔫💨 #filmsky #booksky

    “Out of Sight” soundtrack from 1998 Steven Soderbergh movie. Full of groovy 70s inspired instrumental tracks by David Holmes as well as songs by The Isley Brothers, Dean Martin. Inbetween tracks include some of the best dialog from the movie too. Just a cool movie and amazing soundtrack!

    I struggle to remember the first DVD I purchased. I was all in right away and bought lots of them. Imports of HK films were cheap ($5 a disc for non-Jackie films). I bought boxes full of them. My very first discs ever were likely “Out of Sight,” “Enter the Dragon,” & the first Austin Powers film

    Out of Sight: Scorching leads can get you by in nearly any film but add in stylish direction, faultless editing, a sensual score and a deep bench of a cast and you get one of the best films of the 90s. The best Leonard adaptation. It looks a million dollars too. Just an utter delight.
