James Bridges

Director

James Bridges (June 3, 1936 – June 6, 1993) was an American film director and screenwriter, known for films such as The Paper Chase and The China Syndrome.

The single available review revisits James Bridges' The China Syndrome, praising its sparse style and sustained tension. The reviewer finds the film prescient about nuclear risk and critical of media manipulation. Performances (notably Jack Lemmon) are highlighted. The review recommends the film for sparking lively discussion.

For:film enthusiasts, viewers interested in political/environmental thrillers and media critique

 I believe that “The China Syndrome” is a deliberately sparse cinematic product (very few settings, terse dialogues, minimal direction), specifically designed to keep the spotlight constantly focused on the warning it issues.
