The BMW Films

Dibyo introduced me to the BMWFilms back during campus days and I loved each of them. Its a series of 8 movies by BMW directed by 8 amazing directors (imdb lists it as 9) and they are as follows:

1. Ambush by John Frankenheimer (Ronin, Manchurian Candidate)
2. Chosen by Ang Lee (Crouching Tiger, Hulk, Brokeback Mountain)
3. The Follow by Kar Kai Wong
4. Star by Guy Ritchie (Lock Stock, Snatch) feat. Madonna
5. Powder Keg by Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu (Amores Perros, 21 grams)
6. Hostage by John Woo (Broken Arrow, Face/Off, Mission Impossible 2)
7. Beat the Devil by Tony Scott (Top Gun, Beverly Hills Cop 2, Enemy of the State)
8. Ticker by Joe Carnahan (Narc)

And Clive Owen fits the character of the driver in all of these like a glove. I would have liked to see him as Bond but alas. Even Hugh Jackman. Anyways, coming back to the topic...I'll embed the films one after the other so this would be your one-stop shop to see the films.

Coming up...Ambush
