From his breakout beginnings in 1989 with \u003ci\u003esex, lies, and videotape\u003c\/i\u003e to 2013, when he retired from big-screen movie-making to focus on other pursuits including television, the director's output resembles nothing less than an elaborate experiment. Soderbergh's Hollywood vehicles such as the \u003ci\u003eOcean's Eleven\u003c\/i\u003e movies, \u003ci\u003eContagion\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eMagic Mike \u003c\/i\u003eappear just as risky and outside-the-box as low-budget exercises such as \u003ci\u003eSchizopolis\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eBubble\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eThe Girlfriend Experience\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e This edition details key career moments: his creative crisis surrounding his fourth film, \u003ci\u003eThe Underneath\u003c\/i\u003e; his rejuvenation with the ultra-low-budget free-style \u003ci\u003eSchizopolis\u003c\/i\u003e; the mainstream achievements \u003ci\u003eErin Brockovich\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eTraffic\u003c\/i\u003e, and the \u003ci\u003eOcean's Eleven\u003c\/i\u003e films; and his continuing dedication to pushing his craft forward with films as diverse as conspiracy thrillers, sexy dramas, and biopics on Che Guevara and Liberace.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Spanning twenty-five years, these conversations reveal Soderbergh to be as self-effacing and lighthearted in his later more established years as he was when just beginning to make movies. He comes across as a man undaunted by the glitz and power of Hollywood, remaining, above all, a truly independent filmmaker unafraid to get his hands dirty and pick up the camera himself.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"University Press of Mississippi","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52523092115736,"sku":"9781496820341","price":21.56,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/steven-soderbergh-interviews-revised-and-updated-paperback-softback-9781496820341","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
