If you loved Haywire, try The Good German

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. The Good German has roughly 4.3× fewer votes than Haywire — it's a deeper cut, not a mainstream recommendation. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Steven Soderbergh, and they sit in Drama / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Haywire, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Good German is

Potsdam summer dusk. A reporter’s bicycle leans against the lakeside fence when a soldier’s corpse rises from the reeds. A stolen camera, a borrowed coat, and a lover’s scarf left in the dead man’s pocket. A 1945 chiaroscuro noir by a two-time Oscar winner.
