Many a megalomaniac has arrogantly traipsed into the jungle armed with a film crew and an ego the size of Greenland to risk real human lives for the sake of art. But one of the boons of following a director\u2019s career is watching their inaugural attempt at movie-making. <em>Reservoir Dogs<\/em> feels like a concise thesis of everything Quentin Tarantino would go on to do. Spike Lee\u2019s <em>She\u2019s Gotta Have It <\/em>was a veritable door-kick. And it\u2019s unbelievable that Sidney Lumet\u2019s first crack at a feature film was <em>12 Angry Men<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>So when I first learned that <strong>The Wachowskis<\/strong>\u2018 directorial debut was a subversive, queer noir thriller, my jaw dropped to the floor like a cartoon wolf. And it stars <strong>Jennifer Tilly<\/strong>, <strong>Gina Gershon<\/strong>, and<strong> Joe Pantoliano<\/strong>? Holy crap!<\/p>\n<p>After penning 1995\u2019s <em>Assassins <\/em>(which was, supposedly, a mixed experience), the sisters chose to make their foray into feature filmmaking by doing something no one had done before. Namely: a film noir from the perspective of the femme fatale. In a move that would prove a telling, they chose to work from within a well-known genre, while at the same time making it wholly theirs. Film noir is a genre that mutates quite readily; its conventions are clear and transferrable. And more to the point: it is a ready and willing space for a good twist. <\/p>\n<p>So, with all this in mind, let\u2019s dive in. Here\u2019s how The Wachowskis announced their presence by breaking all the rules.<\/p>\n<p id=\"block-d43cf41b-9c21-4c1c-a459-1de27d5765c4\">Watch <strong>\u201cThe Greatest Lesbian Gangster Heist Movie Ever Made\u201d<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Greatest Lesbian Gangster Heist Movie Ever Made\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/i8bk6KY22NM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"block-76de6f88-1aeb-42e5-8d0d-63b6b34c391c\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_made_this\"><\/span>Who made this?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"block-19294f9d-99fc-4cee-8ca7-135f7eaf7b45\">This video essay comes courtesy of\u00a0<strong>Now You See It<\/strong>.
