True Romance

Tony Scott · 1993

Tony Scott’s 1993 True Romance, written by Quentin Tarantino, follows newlyweds Clarence and Alabama as they flee Detroit with stolen cocaine, pursued by the Mafia and compromised by police informants. Anchored by Christian Slater and Patricia Arquette’s intimate, physically committed performances, the film balances stylised violence, pop-cultural wit, and genuine romantic urgency. Jeffrey L. Kimball’s saturated cinematography and Hans Zimmer’s looping Orff-based score reinforce its fable-like intensity. Though structurally uneven — strongest in its Detroit origins, thinner in its LA climax — it sustains tone and emotional logic across 120 minutes. A cult favourite, it rewards viewers attuned to its specific blend of pulp sincerity and visual bravado.

Lost Highway

David Lynch · 1997

David Lynch's first film after Twin Peaks follows Bill Pullman's jazz musician, arrested for a murder he cannot account for, who inexplicably becomes a different young man midway through. Written with novelist Barry Gifford and shot by Peter Deming in near-total darkness, it was a box-office failure on release that has since built a devoted following willing to sit with a story that refuses to resolve.

Toy Story 4

Josh Cooley, John Lasseter · 2019

Woody, no longer Bonnie's favourite toy, follows a homemade spork named Forky on a road trip and is reunited with the long-lost Bo Peep, who has built an independent life as a lost toy rather than an owned one. Josh Cooley, who replaced original director John Lasseter partway through a lengthy development process, uses that reunion to reopen a question Toy Story 3 seemed to have already settled: what a toy is actually for once being loved by a child stops being guaranteed.
