The Limey

(Artisan)

Steven Soderbergh's film has '60s icon Terence Stamp as an aging ex-con from London in LA to find out who killed his daughter Jennie, and pursuing Peter Fonda's epicene record producer, the last person to see her alive. But the storyline is not as important as Soderbergh's disruption of and insight into the conventions of storytelling itself, into the whole nature of time and the self that tells these tales.
