It went on to win the Audience Award in 1994 at France’s [[Deauville Film Festival]], later being picked up for release by [[Trimark Pictures]]. After his debut, Corrente was asked to direct the feature adaptation of David Mamet’s award-winning play [[American Buffalo]], starring [[Dustin Hoffman]] and [[Dennis Franz]].
