Even though Paul Schrader came up in the 70’s with filmmakers such as Steven Spielberg, Martin Scorsese, Francis Ford Coppola and many more, due to his not being allowed to see a film until he was well into his teens, he is not considered one of their generation of “movie brats.” That outsider status has allowed him to create his own niche in directing with such films as Light Sleeper, Affliction and American Gigolo.

Over the years Schrader has flirted with the mainstream mostly with screenplays...

I really have to say I'm consistantly impressed with the interview choices on this site.

Also - the script to Raging Bull is fantastic. I think you can read the whole thing on the Raging Bull DVD, either that or I'm thinking of Taxi Driver. Either way, if Scorsese were a foursome, Schrader is easily his fifth Beatle.

Paul Schrader's is one of my favorites. His work is consistently top notch. I just saw his early movie "Obsession", which is a gem. I think Raging Bull, Taxi Driver, The Last Temptation of Christ, and Mishima will be classics forever. Even his lesser known movies like "Bringing Out the Dead" are great. Everyone should check out his movies.

I heard about this situation; it's quite bizzare. In terms of the failures or successes of his body of work on all levels, much can be said- but he is an unquestionable talent. I love the films he's directed, and his work with Scorcese has produced some of the greatest films ever made. In any case, this is a fascinating interview...
