After reading some articles about de Palma, I feel like I'm interested in him as a phenomenon, even though most of the movies of his I've seen leave me cold. Sisters and Body Double seem like structuralist sleeze, Snake Eyes and The Black Dahlia are nicely filmed but muddled on a story level, The Untouchables and Carli…
