And now for a new feature on my blog where I recommend a film that you may not know. I’ve brilliantly called it “Movies You Might Know”.
I’m often asked by friends and colleagues for recommendations for movies so I’ll use this ongoing series to point out titles that I think many of you perhaps haven’t seen.
We start with a really fun 1992 action flick called Trespass. The plot is very simple: two firemen (Bill Paxton and William Sadler) find a treasure map while battling a blaze. It leads them to East St. Louis, where they search for the gold promised on the map. They get more than they bargained for when they also have to battle a tough street gang, led by Ice Cube and Ice-T.
Trespass comes from a fine action director, Walter Hill, who brought us The Warriors and 48 HRS., among others. The script is written by big-time Robert Zemeckis and his partner, Bob Gale. The picture was released in December 1992 and fell through the cracks, earning just $13 million at the box office.
If you’re looking for a good action flick, Trespass delivers. It’s definitely worth a look.
