Steven Soderberghs feature films present a diverse range of subject matter and formal styles: from the self-absorption of his breakthrough hit Sex; Lies; and Videotape to populist social problem films such as Erin Brockovich; and from the modernist discontinuity of Full Frontal and filmed performance art of Grays Anatomy to a glossy; star-studded action blockbuster such as Oceans Eleven. Using a combination of realism and expressive stylization of character subjectivity; Soderberghs films diverge from the contemporary Hollywood mainstream through the statements they offer on issues including political repression; illegal drugs; violence; environmental degradation; the empowering and controlling potential of digital technology; and economic inequality.
