Playing God (film)
Playing God is a 1997 film directed by Andy Wilson. It stars David Duchovny in his first starring role after achieving success with The XFiles, Timothy Hutton, and Angelina Jolie.
The film was finished in 1995 but not released until 1997 due to initial negative reactions from test audiences. The films trailer contained a brief glimpse of a sex scene between Duchovny and Jolie. The actress later confirmed that she had filmed two sex scenes for the movie, but that both of them were edited out of the final cut.The film did not fare well financially or with critics, scoring just aat the review site Rotten Tomatoes and making only 4,166,918 at the US theater box office. Popular film critic Roger Ebert however, gave the film three stars saying This may not be a great movie, but for both Duchovny and Hutton, its a turning point, citing Duchovnys ability to stand above the action like Clint Eastwood and Huttons ability to create a real character as the villain, instead of merely filling a space. ........
