He was there after all and for all of his faults the man has never shied away from tackling the very difficult and important issues facing US society that so many directors could/should have but were either too chicken shit or too engrossed in maxing box office and feeding the beast.
'Natural Born Killers' was something people either loved or hated, I think it struck just a bit too close to home for many and was just too juggled up for most.
