The first episode in an extended series about Oliver Stone. Despite Stone being known for political films that deal with recent American history, his first two directorial efforts are surprisingly strange horror movies. Our discussion of Seizure and The Hand takes us directly into analysis of Hollywood occult ideology about the power of the imagination. We also note how his screenplay for The Midnight Express provides a glimpse into the kind of social critique that characterizes much of his later work. While Stone displays insights and a sincerity that separate him from overtly manipulative directors like Nolan and Fincher, we note that his filmography contains several unsettling ambiguities and that his early career suggests some interactions with intelligence services.
