Sometimes even a short career can be a definitive one. Jason Reitman may not boast a prolific body of work, but the films he has made bare a distinct thumbprint. From Thank You for Smoking to the upcoming Young Adult, Reitman's films have in common a very specific view of the world. And we're excited to watch him grow within his definitive filmmaking voice. Here are the best of his films so far.
Reitman's debut, Thank You For Smoking was a biting look at the world of lobbying. Black comedy doesn't get much better than this and Reitman's script had as much to do with that as his direction. Both are extremely polished for a first attempt and the "clean" feel of the film reflects well on the artifice maintained by its lead character.
