But that wasn’t always Bigelow’s established style. Throughout the 1980s and into the early ‘90s, she made a name for herself with fun, frivolous genre flicks. Then, 30 years ago, the Point Break director released a movie that set her career on a new trajectory — and almost derailed it completely in the process.


It’s interesting to see how “Strange Days” continues to resonate even after three decades. Katherine Bigelow’s evolution as a director is truly fascinating, and it’s great to reflect on her earlier work. Thanks for sharing this perspective!
