This film came in between Foster's two Oscar winning performances in The Accused and Silence of the Lambs. A hitman is dispatched to silence a woman who saw too much, but one look is enough for him to decide he doesnt want her life - just her love. It became a stocking stuffer in many homes that Christmas and went on to earn 150 million on home video alone. I believe this is the directors cut, which he decided was. Batman also revolutionized the home video industry it was the first financially successful film to be released for the home market the same year as its theatrical release, and for only 19.99. Dennis Hopper, Jodie Foster, Dean StockwellDirected by:Dennis Hopper. Unfortunately, they didn't figure him to become obsessed with her, and what's more we didn't figure that she would develop Stockholm Syndrome. Hopper directed and starred in this movie - but disowned it before release. Mobsters and the police chase a hit man (Dennis Hopper) and his target, an electric-sign artist (Jodie Foster) with problems of her own. Dennis Hopper (Hoosiers, Easy Rider), who also produced and directed the movie, played Milo, a hit man hired by the mob to catch the girl. Too bad the movie wasn't as good as the people in it. Cameos by Bob Dylan, Charlie Sheen, and Catherine Keener added up to a great cast. On the mob side, we have the boss, Vincent Price John Turturro (Barton Fink, "Monk") Tony Sirico ("The Sopranos") and Joe Pesci (Goodfellas, Raging Bull). I am getting together a collection of all the movies that I have done so I bought this one. On the police side, we get Fred Ward (Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins). The upcoming LEGO Batmobile (1989) is a scaled replica of the Batmobile from Tim Burtons 1989 movie, starring. Now, the mob and the police are after her as she flees rather than enter witness protection. Set 76139 is an intricate, nostalgic build for a LEGO expert who wants a challenge. Anne Benton (Jodie Foster) was in the wrong place at the wrong time and witnessed a murder. But it surely isn't.A very strange film with a sterling cast. The stars' performances are the only reason to see this movie, and even that is tenuous grounds. The film is more about their relationship than the external plot, but since neither is particularly interesting, it doesn't really matter.
Instead, it's a muted yet rambling confession about the sinner inside a filmmaker, which would be great if Backtrack were, say, Rear Window. Dennis Hopper is sent by the mob to kill Jodie Foster, witness to crimes. Deeply self-conscious, with a calculatingly meditative tone that becomes inseparable from Hopper's tenacious voyeurism (the film's most obvious commercial hook-Foster's nude scene-is almost prayerful in its pathology), Backtrack wants to be a confessional fable about the artistic process. Tunas comments in yellow: Backtrack (1989) never had a us release, and never had a theatrical release under that name. The resulting isolation squeezes Foster's creative spirit, forcing her to confront doubt and self-loathing-everything that artists suffer as the price for self-expression.
But instead of killing her, Hopper's killer falls in love, demonstrating his passion by stalking her at a distance, "owning" her every move and keeping her in exile from ordinary life. Looking startlingly young, Foster plays a conceptual artist who witnesses a mob hit, thus becoming a target herself for an assassin (Hopper). Dennis Hopper directed, as well as acted in, this moody mess from 1989, which was barely seen for a couple of years until getting a boost from the rising fame of its star, Jodie Foster.
