 Michael Lehmann Biography :: Hollywood.com   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
Lehmann's first studio-backed feature was to be a small, skewed view of a standard caper film, but through overproduction, it became one of the most critically reviled features in Hollywood history -- "Hudson Hawk" (1991).
Lehmann called in his "Heathers" screenwriter, Daniel Waters, to help beef up the script, but reportedly control of the film was seized by Willis and producer Joel Silver who were riding high based on the success of the "Die Hard" franchise.
Lehmann claimed that for contractual reasons he was forced to make compromises in his vision of the film.

 SPLICEDwire | "40 Days and 40 Nights" review (2002) Michael Lehmann, Josh Hartnett, Shannyn Sossamon
Directed by Michael Lehmann -- the man behind the twisted teen angst and irony of the subversive '80s cult hit "Heathers" -- "40 Days" finds many new and inventive ways to make sexual frustration funny.
Lehmann lets the laughs come naturally, especially in this scene, which would have been turned into an embarrassing slapstick routine by most Hollywood directors.
But even in the picture's weaker moments, Hartnett and Sossamon continue to have great chemistry, and Lehmann continues to be a resourceful and mischievous director who understands the importance of character-driven comedy.

 SPLICEDwire | Michael Lehmann interview for "40 Days and 40 Nights" (2002)
Lehmann's first film was the 1980s anti-John Hughes cult classic "Heathers." Later he directed "Hudson Hawk," "My Giant" and "Truth About Cats & Dogs."
But his best shot in years at equaling the sleeper success of "Heathers" may be "40 Days and 40 Nights," another laugh-out-loud concept comedy that turns its genre on its ear.
It would be looked down on because there is, in a way, a venue now for making more intelligent independent films that shuts the door on those really twisted, dark independent films.

 Hudson Hawk   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
The tongue-in-cheek aspect of the film is highlighted by the way, way over the top performances of Richard E Grant and Sandra Bernhard, and this is probably where the film lost everyone who thought this was supposed to be an action flick.
There is a lot of exposition set up in the story that may fly over the heads of some, but for those who get the film, this is what makes the film.
The score by Michael Kamen and Robert Kraft is a reasonable effort that does as much as it can at times to not sound too much like an action film soundtrack.
