- Crazy Heart (2009) Again, Cooper tackles a new genre here with 2009’s Crazy Heart. Up until this point in our list, most of Cooper’s movies have been genre movies, or films that tell their respective stories within a familiar structure of crime, horror, or adventure.
- Hostiles (2017) Cooper is a very interesting director in that he seems to want to try his hand at nearly every classic American film genre. If Antlers was his horror movie and Black Mass his gangster flick, then Hostiles is his Western, and boy is his take bleak and violent.
- The Pale Blue Eye (2023) This, the newest of Cooper’s films and his first made exclusively for Netflix, once again stars his favorite collaborator, Christian Bale.
- Black Mass (2015) Black Mass sees Cooper take on a true story in this biographical crime drama about infamous Boston mobster Whitey Bulger. Bulger here is played by Johnny Depp who, in typical fashion, does his best to disappear into the role — bald cap and thick accent included — in what many praised as being his best performance in years.
