"Extreme Prejudice" & "Southern Comfort" would make my top 3 favourite Walter Hill films. He would easily be one of my favourite filmmakers. Rewatched "Streets of Fire" a month or two back, and enjoyed it a little more than the first time I saw it. Forgot how stylish it looked - rain soaked atmospherics and rockabilly comic noir shades. Basic storyline, but it was fun and Dafoe stood out whenever on screen.
His 70s work; "The Driver", "Hard Times" and "The Warriors" is nothing short than great. I like "48 Hours", but it's not up their with my favourites. "Johnny Handsome" is probably his most under appreciated. "The Long Riders" is another impressive effort especially with that cast.
