In the Soup
A charming pipsqueak of a movie, a playful film of ragged and shaggy appeal.
Part of IndieCollect's RescueFest 2025
In the Soup
Aspiring New York filmmaker (Steve Buscemi) chases his dream of making a movie to star his beautiful next door neighbor (Jennifer Beals), but his financier (Seymour Cassel) turns out to be a con artist with his own ideas about the script. Winner of the Sundance Grand Jury Prize, this quintessential indie — shot in color but released in gorgeous B&W — also stars Stanley Tucci, Sam Rockwell, Will Patton, Jim Jarmusch, Debi Mazar and Carol Kane.
Buscemi recalls, “Alex gave me a lot of responsibility for that character. Not that he didn’t have his ideas about this guy — which I tried to fulfill— but we were constantly discussing ideas. He’s very much an actor’s director, and a brilliant filmmaker.”
