Schrader On Schrader Av Paul Schrader

<p><i>Schrader on Schrader</i> is an essential set of dialogues with one of the most genuinely fascinating and uncompromising writer-directors in American film.<br><br>Raised as a Calvinist and hence forbidden to partake of ''worldly pleasures'' such as movies, Paul Schrader nevertheless defied his upbringing to become first a leading film critic, then a star pupil among the US ''movie brat'' generation of the 1970s: writing the coruscating screenplays for Martin Scorsese''s <i>Taxi Driver </i>and <i>Raging Bull </i>and directing such provocative pictures as <i>Blue Collar</i>, <i>Hardcore </i>and <i>American Gigolo</i>. Maturity has never sated his appetite for attacking ''difficult'' material, from adapting Kazantzakis'' <i>The Last Temptation</i> for Scorsese, to filming the singular lives of Mishima and Patty Hearst.<br><br><i>Schrader on Schrader </i>is a tour through this formidable body of work, including some of Schrader''s finest critical essays.</p>
