Born in Newark, NJ in September of 1940, Brian DePalma went from physics student to student filmmaker in the heady height of the hippie era, with his early experimental films introducing none other than the much feted Robert DeNiro to the world at large.
Following a surprising run of perversely Hitchcockian works like Sisters, Obsession, Dressed to Kill, Blow Out and Body Double (and a few strangely beloved cult oddities like Carrie and Phantom of the Paradise,) DePalma made a hard right turn into populist crime films like Scarface and Carlito's Way, the first Tom Cruise Mission Impossible film and Disney CG fest Mission to Mars before descending into a ghetto of direct to video style "erotic thrillers" oddly peopled by the likes of Rebecca Romijin-Stamos, Antonio Banderas and Scarlett Johanssen.
So join us as we attempt to dig into the notable highs (and precipitous lows) of Brian DePalma, only here on Weird Scenes!
