The Adrenalized Action And Cult Films Of Tony Scott

When people talk about Tony Scott’s movies, the same words often come up: stylish, exuberant and kinetic. Three years ago, in a video interview with The Guardian, Scott explained why watching his movies could sometimes be exhausting.

“I have this natural energy that I want to inject into what I do,” he said. “The worlds that I touch, I sort of embrace those worlds, and I always look for that energetic side of the worlds that I’m touching.”

Scott died Sunday at 68, after leaping off a bridge into the Los Angeles Harbor.
