It seems at some point Hollywood lost faith in Hill and began to provide him less opportunity to make a big budgeted film. I still consider STREETS OF FIRE to be an undiscovered gem that needs revisited. I’ve loved nearly every movie associated with writer/director Walter Hill.

Special Features: Isolated Music Track / Original Theatrical Trailer RATED R Wild West Violence and a Sex Scene The sublime writer-director Walter Hill’s Wild Bill (1995) focuses on the last days of mythic gunfighter, Wild Bill Hickok (Jeff Bridges), consorting in Deadwood with Calamity Jane (Ellen Barkin), observed by a longtime friend (John Hurt), and haunted by the ghosts of his past, from an old flame (Diane Lane) to a young man (David Arquette) who announces his intention to kill Bill.ĪUDIO: English 5.1 DTS-HD MA / English 2.0 DTS-HD MA Bridges’ performance is a masterstroke of squinty-eyed bitterness.” “Wild Bill succeeds as a character study of a man whose idiosyncratic code of justice eventually catches up with him. Director Hill has dug deep into the Western myth and dredged up all its misbegotten souls.”
