His audio narration is a riveting, often hilarious collection of regrets and criticisms, the latter of which are mostly aimed at his own technique or lack thereof. Listening to it is a fascinating experience, particularly for someone like me who considers Hardcore to be a major work; it raises fundamental questions about how important intention is when it comes to evaluating art, and about how qualified an artist is to judge his or her own art. His arguments for why Hardcore is a failure are clear, logical, and convincing — and wrong. Scott is a pious Michigan businessman whose teenage daughter Kristen disappears on a church trip to California. Jake hires a private detective Peter Boyle , who finds a porno film in which the underage girl appears, leading Jake to drop his life for several months to look for his daughter in Los Angeles.

Hardcore Henry () - IMDb
The man is played by George C. Scott , the girl by Season Hubley. They have moments in the movie when they talk, really talk, about what's important to them and we're reminded of how much movie dialogue just repeats itself, movie after movie, year after year. There's a scene in "Hardcore" where the man who is a strict Calvinist and the prostitute who began selling herself in her early teens talk about sex, religion, and morality, and we're almost startled by the belief and simple poetry in their words. This relationship, between two people with nothing in common, who meet at an intersection in a society where many have nothing in common, is at the heart of the movie, and makes it important. It is preceded and followed by another of those story ideas that Paul Schrader seems to generate so easily. His movies are about people with values, in conflict with society.
