Out of Sight (1998 Steven Soderbergh)

Reviewed many times before, film is very cool. I hadn't really thought before but it's as close to the Bogie-Bacall dynamic as you're going to get.

Everything in front of and behind the camera really works. Screenplay is by Scott Frank, who also wrote an earlier Elmore Leonard adaptation Get Shorty (1995) as well as Marley and Me (2008) and Little Man Tate (1991). Writer and editor Anne Coates both Oscar nominated (she lost to Michael Kahn for Saving Private Ryan).
