The Directors: Neil Jordan

3 Apr

Neil Jordan is a filmmaker who doesn’t stick to one genre. He seems to dive into areas that he’s never been in before. He was pretty prolific in the 90′s but seemed to slow down with filmmaking. He’s released two excellent fiction books but still has a focus on film. His typically deal with European themes that are easily translatable to anyone who can make an emotional connection with them. If you aren’t as familiar with the works of Jordan, I would suggest getting to know him sooner than later.

1. “Mona Lisa” – 1986

2. “The Crying Game” – 1992

3. “Michael Collins” – 1996

4. “The Good Thief” – 2002

5. “The End of the Affair” – 1999

6. “Breakfast at Pluto” – 2005

7. “Interview with the Vampire: The Vampire Chronicles” – 1994

8. “High Sprits” – 1989

    Hhahaha In Dreams is such a terrible movie, but Neil Jordan is a very good director to say the least.

    This is true, but the majority of his other films more then make up for it.
