From origins in comedy writing and performance, director Barry
Levinson has become a versatile filmmaker whose early successes
with character-driven comic dramas have been augmented by forays
into thrillers, science fiction, and political satire. His interest
in ensemble pieces and a recurrent affection for his native Baltimore
have also influenced his choice of projects for both the big screen
and the small one, where the Levinson-produced Homicide set a
high bar with its high-powered ensemble work and gritty vision
of Baltimore police detectives.
