So this is the entire 1981 film in full, with Douglas Slocombe’s luminous photography re-expressed in black and white, and with all sound and dialogue cues removed and replaced with ambient, throbbing music supplied by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross.
Soderbergh has got the chops, and the connections at the highest level, to pull off exactly this kind of story-telling heist, and the result are well worth a look for anyone interested in cinema. It would seem self-evident that the current interest has been sparked by the release of the final chapter in the Raiders franchise, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.
Not for the last time, but there are moments when it feel like I’m always the last to know when something interesting happens Steven Soderbergh’s reworking of the Steven Spielberg/George Lucas classic Raiders of the Lost Ark from 1981 has been gaining a bit of attention of late, even if it’s been online for nearly a decade.
