After proving capable of handling comedy, David Gordon Green directed 12 episodes of Eastbound & Down, an HBO series created by Jody Hill, Ben Best, and Danny McBride. Green agreed to direct the fantasy comedy Your Highness, from a screenplay by McBride and Best, with far less success. Despite the film being a passion project for Green, Your Highne...
The Sitter stars Jonah Hill, who became a star with Superbad but had just established himself as a dramatic actor in Moneyball. Hill stars as a slacker college student forced to fill in as babysitter for three problematic children. The premise was similar to the Chris Columbus family film, Adventures in Babysitting, but was marketed as "the filthie...
Despite praiseworthy flashbacks resolving questions from the original, Halloween Kills was largely a disappointment to audiences and critics alike. After successfully capturing the essence of John Carpenter’s 1978 classic with his 2018 reboot, Green took an approach to Halloween Kills that adopts the worst qualities of the many sequels. Suspense an...
Our Brand is Crisisis only one of five films Green has directed without producing or contributing to the screenplay, which may be why it lacks many of his signature elements. Loosely based on the 2005 documentary with the same name directed by Rachel Boynton, Green’s film follows the 2002 Bolivian presidential election campaign being run by retired...
Although he didn’t return as Tommy Doyle in Halloween Kills, Paul Rudd did work with Green on the independent comedy, Prince Avalanche. Based on the 2011 Icelandic film Either Way, Green adapted the story to be set in Texas, the state he grew up in. Along with returning to a narrative set in the South, Prince Avalanche marked a return to form for G...
Many of David Gordon Green’s early independent films dealt with loss and tragedy, but Snow Angels is the bleakest of them all. With themes dealing with the loss of innocence and interconnected lives of citizens in a small town, the independent drama features strong performances from the ensemble cast headed up by Kate Beckinsale and Sam Rockwell. S...
Those who believe Nicolas Cage only makes bad movies may think differently after seeing Joe, an independent adaptation of Larry Brown's 1991 novel. Even though Green didn’t write the screenplay (Gary Hawkins is credited with that), it continued the filmmaker’s return to the Southern drama narratives of his early independent films. Set in Texas, the...
David Gordon Green’s success directing strong performances from actors continued with Al Pacino in Manglehorn, though even in Pacino’s worst movies he is often great. The basic plot ofManglehornis far from original, following an aging locksmith named A.J. Manglehorn (Pacino), as he attempts to reconnect with the son he neglected as a child while st...
For his third film, David Gordon Green collaborated on a screenplay for the first time. Undertow was produced by Terrence Malick, who also worked on the screenplay under the pseudonym Lingard Jervey. In his first American role, Jamie Bell plays a young boy forced to protect his younger brother from his murderous uncle (Josh Lucas). The Southern got...
When Blumhouse Productions obtained the rights to reboot Halloween, David Gordon Green and Danny McBride approached them with their proposed vision, despite neither having made a horror film in their career. This unlikely pairing resulted in a reboot that pays respect to the original in style and narrative, imagining a continuation of John Carpente...
