Moebius (1996): With its countless twists and turns, several directors found Moebius impossible to make. Not so for Soderbergh, who completely turned the project around with his vision to set the film on the Las Vegas Strip. Cameron Diaz plays a down-on-her-luck understudy who wants to turn over a new leaf. Alan Cummings is a roulette croupier whose drug habit is spiraling wildly out of control. Their fates collide in an alley behind the casino when she finds him completely flipped out, running in circles, and decides to nurse him back to health. What goes around comes around as her good turn befriending Cummings gets her on the inside track at the casino and leads to a featured role in the new show at the Moebius. |
