Ranking the Films of Scott Cooper
Scott Cooper has quietly made an interesting career for himself. As I said here when I interviewed him a few years ago, when you watch a film from Cooper, you’re watching work that has a decidedly throwback feel to it. In particular, the character studies of Crazy Heart, Hostiles, and Out of the Furnace are almost a generation out of […] More

Telluride Film Festival Review: ‘Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere’ is a Stunning Look Inside the Soul of An Artist Struggling with Depression
Depression can cripple a person. It’s also something any of us can struggle with, whether it’s clinical and consistent, or time to time. Having the ability to talk about it and overcome it is what matters, and that is a more recent occurrence in society. That even someone like Bruce Springsteen can suffer from devastating […] More

A Bruce Springsteen Biopic From Scott Cooper Could Be in the Works?
It’s kind of crazy that a Bruce Springsteen movie has never been made. Sure, there’s Blinded by the Light, as well as some concert films and documentaries, but never a narrative film. Our own editor Joey Magidson is a huge fan, so he can probably rattle off all of the important moments that a biopic […] More

Interview: Filmmaker Scott Cooper on Making ‘The Pale Blue Eye’ and More
When you watch a Scott Cooper film, you’re watching work that has a decidedly throwback feel. In particular, the character studies of Crazy Heart, Hostiles, and Out of the Furnace are almost a generation out of time.

Well, the film doesn’t shy away from darkness or the macabre, even getting a bit gnarly at times, but Poe? He’s not that […] More

Film Review: ‘Antlers’ Lacks a Sharpness to Truly Be Effective
Throughout Antlers, it never once becomes apparent why filmmaker Scott Cooper wanted to make this movie. Frankly, the work itself struggles with an identity crisis. By bringing up Native American mythology in a creature feature but then barely utilizing it, Cooper and company do not just a disservice to their film, but to the potential […] More
