BMW Films presents a series of short films to us here in the form of, 'The Hire'. 'Hire' is a series of 8 short films that were aired on the internet between 2001-02.
All 8 episodes featured popular directors from across the world, including John Woo, Ang Lee, Guy Ritchie, and Ridley Scott. Each episode also starred Clive Owen as the mysterious 'Driver'. Other big names co-starred with Owen in different episodes, like Don Cheadle, Forest Whitaker, Ray Liotta, Kathryn Morris, and a hilarious bit with James Brown was also included.
Rediculously popular at the time of release, the movies were viewed over 11 million times in four months.
You can see em all on YouTube. Heres the best 2 that I liked. Other good ones are 'Ticker' and 'Beat The Devil'.
