{"title": "Streets of Fire 1984 is Walter Hill over-directing a bit", "timestamp": 1760305637.0576544, "description": "Some actors cannot produce emotion, which looks very bad. But a lot of bad actors over-act. Which is not good either. Today, watching the 1984 [Walter Hill]() movie *Streets of Fire*, I think I finally saw an over-directed film. Is this a bad thing? No! The film is a blast. But it is not your typical movie. It is trying so hard that it crosses the line into avant-garde cinema, while remaining a dumb action film.", "author": {"avatar": "https://blenderdumbass.org/pictures/favicon.png", "bio": "Aka: J.Y.
