Blood Simple
The owner of a seedy small-town Texas bar discovers that one of his employees is having an affair with his wife. A chaotic chain of misunderstandings, lies and mischief ensues after he devises a plot to have them murdered.
Nicolas Cage
Actor
I’ve been lucky to work with some of the most creative people and it’s true that I enjoy filmmaking and I’m an enthusiast. I’d seen Blood Simple and I really wanted to work with the Coen Brothers.
The Master
Freddie, a volatile, heavy-drinking veteran who suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder, finds some semblance of a family when he stumbles onto the ship of Lancaster Dodd, the charismatic leader of a new "religion" he forms after World War II.
Nicolas Cage
Actor
What was the last performance you saw that got under your skin?
Joaquin Phoenix in The Master. I loved him in that. I just thought it was the most original, relentless, honest, and tragic performance that I’ve seen in modern times.
Joker
During the 1980s, a failed stand-up comedian is driven insane and turns to a life of crime and chaos in Gotham City while becoming an infamous psychopathic crime figure.
Nicolas Cage
Actor
Then there’s Joker, where Joaquin Phoenix [Cage’s co-star in 1999’s foreboding thriller 8MM] is totally shamanic. That film is looking at something which is an [important] issue today – that mental illness is rampant and [the government] is cutting funding.”
Marriage Story
A stage director and an actress struggle through a grueling, coast-to-coast divorce that pushes them to their personal extremes.
Nicolas Cage
Actor
I love Marriage Story because it’s a movie that answers questions for people who may be embarking on a divorce.
