WATERWORLD (1995) 

 

Director: Kevin Reynolds 

Writers: Peter Rader and David Twohy 

Music by: James Newton-Howard 

Starring: Kevin Costner (The Mariner), Dennis Hopper (Deacon), Jeanne Tripplehorn (Helen), Tina Majorino (Enola), Michael Jeter 

Straplines: Beyond the horizon lies the secret to a new beginning. 

We look at the production and marketing of this Kevin Costner epic which inherited the unfair reputation of being a flop even though that is not the case at all. Did the studio make a mistake by editing so much out of the theatrical release?
