In the late 1970s, he made his first feature films, <\/span><b>Driller Killer<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and Ms .45. In the 1980s and 1990s, his international successes included King of New York, Bad Lieutenant, <\/span><b>Body Snatchers<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><b>The Addiction<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and The Funeral. Bad Lieutenant, starring Harvey Keitel, was presented at the Cannes Film Festival in 1992 in the section Un Certain Regard. One year later, Ferrara returned to Cannes, this time in Official Selection, with Body Snatchers. The Addiction, starring Christopher Walken, was selected for the Berlinale in 1995 and The Funeral, starring Benicio Del Toro, Christopher Walken and Isabella Rossellini, won two awards at the Venice Film Festival in 1996.
