Many would disagree based on The Dead Don't Die. Not me tho.
That's the one? Nonsense
It's certainly not Stranger than Paradise, Down By Law, Ghost Dog, Broken Flowers, Only Lovers, or Paterson
Cwuertinly!!!
Okay cool man, have a great Saturday.

Consistently Excellent is an unfair bar. Which filmmakers have the highest slugging percentage? Kubrick, Jarmusch, Tarantino, all good answers

I think he’s made worse than Cry Macho, which was not very good, but watchable. A bit like The Rookie.
J. Edgar was a mess, The Gauntlet mediocre, and Bronco Billy is his worst that I’ve seen.
The 15:17 to Paris is considered his worst, but I have not yet seen it.

He’s directed another 30 movies though, ranging from good to great. He’s also acted in several other classics. Great career.
