After Performance, Cammell holed up in Holywood writing scripts that didn't make it to the screen. He finally directed one of his own scripts againin 1987, the serial killer flick White of the Eye. Another eight years later, Cammell directed Christopher Walken in Wild Side. He died a year later. British Film Mavericks is Danny's personal take on the brilliant outsiders of modern British cinema.
