At the time of this writing, Brian De Palma’s last directorial effort was 2019’s Domino, starring Game of Thrones‘ Nikolaj Coster-Waldau. While some audiences enjoyed Domino, professional critics were quite harsh on the film, prompting De Palma to reveal that even he was not happy with the final cut of the movie, citing significant production issues for butchering his vision.

This revelation, along with the fact that the film premiered direct to video in the United States, was quite a shock for fans of Brian De Palma’s earlier work, as it seemed to signal a real downturn in his creative passion and Hollywood influence.
