Æon Flux
Peter Chung’s futuristic acrobatic assassin was a highpoint of MTV’s early ’90s Liquid Television series, a mix of stunning visuals, stark (and occasionally brutal) storytelling and an attractively futuristic dystopia that was vague enough for the viewer to project their own beliefs onto it. The movie may have let us into Flux’s world too much, but at her best, Flux was a silent ingenue who could kill you for looking at her the wrong way.
