EMBED for wordpress. Want more? Curiosity gets the better of him when the media become involved, and he begins to unravel the pieces of a nefarious conspiracy.

Goofs The sound mixer for the slasher movie mutes all of the sounds except the scream of the girl in the shower, in order to prove that it's really her voice. In fact, what he proves is that she's been dubbed: if it were really sound from the location he would not have been able to eliminate the shower or its curtain being pulled aside, as the microphone would have picked them up too.
Quotes [last lines] Jack Terry : It's a good scream. User reviews Review. Top review. Brian De Palma's forgotten masterpiece. In , Brian De Palma released what might be considered his "best" thriller to date. The "Slasher" genre was at full blossom, and the conspiracy driven, psychological thrillers of the s were slowly declining in terms of popularity.
Sally, who is rescued from the wreck by the protagonist Travolta himself stays as his counterpart though out the movie. Jack must set the story straight, and prove the police wrong. De Palma is known for his themes of guilt, paranoia and obsession which work as essential parts for the character development in "Blow Out". It's a hell of ride from start to finish, and one can truly state that Brian De Palma is a master of suspense.
The acting of John Travolta is superb and convincing, and I dare to say that it's his best role to date. I was a bit skeptical to Nancy Allen at first, but her naive character grew on me over the course of the film, and might actually be one of the things that makes this film so great; that is believable character development without the often sudden change of identity.
Blow out is stylish, and both the directing of De Palma and cinematography of Vilmos Zsigmond is highly impressive. From beautifully shot scenes in the vein of Francis Ford Coppola to the drastic suspense of Hitchcock, De Palma uses all the best tricks in the book. The last 15 minutes finale is quite extraordinary.
The atmosphere, mood and cinematography are all close perfect. It truly is Brian De Palma's forgotten masterpiece. Westlake Sep 19, Details Edit. Release date July 24, United States. United States.
