Question: Which director was born first, Barbet Schroeder or Charles Band?
Context: Barfly is a 1987 American comedy drama film directed by Barbet Schroeder and starring Mickey Rourke and Faye Dunaway.  The film is a semi-autobiography of poet/author Charles Bukowski during the time he spent drinking heavily in Los Angeles, and it presents Bukowski's alter ego Henry Chinaski.  The screenplay, written by Bukowski, was commissioned by the French film director Schroeder, and it was published (with illustrations by the author) in 1984, when film production was still pending. The Charles Bukowski Tapes are a collection of short interviews with the American writer/poet Charles Bukowski, filmed and assembled by Barbet Schroeder and first published in 1987 in the USA.  Today, the video documentary is considered a cult classic. Barbet Schroeder (born 26 August 1941) is an Iranian-born Swiss film director and producer who started his career in French cinema in the 1960s, working together with directors such as Jean-Luc Godard and Jacques Rivette.  Since the late 1980s he has directed many big budget Hollywood films, often mixing melodrama with the thriller genre in films like "Single White Female, Kiss of Death", and "Murder by Numbers".  He has been nominated for the Academy Award for Best Director, and for the Palme d'Or for his 1987 film "Barfly". Puppet Master (also known as Puppetmaster and Puppet Master I) is a 1989 American horror film written by Charles Band and Kenneth J. Hall, and directed by David Schmoeller.  It is the first film in the "Puppet Master" franchise and stars Paul Le Mat, Irene Miracle, Matt Roe and Kathryn O'Reilly as psychics who are plotted against by a former colleague, using puppets animated by an Egyptian spell.  Originally intended for theatrical release in summer 1989, before being released on home video the following September, "Puppet Master" was ultimately pushed to a direct-to-video release on October 12, 1989, as Charles Band felt he was likely to make more money this way than he would in the theatrical market.  The film was very popular in the video market and since developed a large cult following that has led to the production of twelve sequels. General Idi Amin Dada: A Self Portrait (French: "Général Idi Amin Dada: Autoportrait" ) is a 1974 documentary film by French director Barbet Schroeder with English dialogue.  It was made with the support and participation of its subject, the Ugandan dictator Idi Amin.  The film depicts Amin at the height of his power as the ruler of Uganda. More is the first full-length soundtrack album, and third studio album, by the English rock band Pink Floyd, released on 13 June 1969 in the United Kingdom by EMI Columbia and on 9 August 1969 by Tower Records a subsidiary label of Capitol Records in the United States as Original Motion Picture Soundtrack from the film More.  It is the first album by the band to be released by Capitol internationally.  The film "More" was primarily filmed on location on Ibiza where most of the story takes place.  It was the directorial debut for Barbet Schroeder. Jorge Arriagada (born 1943) is a Chilean film composer.  He is perhaps best known for his long-term collaboration with director Raúl Ruiz.

Gilliam is featured eating a 100-franc note, while Fuller smokes a cigar.  Courant's favourite subject was a 7-month-old baby.  The film was screened in its then-entirety in Avignon in November 2009 and was screened in Redondo Beach, CA on April 9, 2010. Obscured by Clouds is the seventh studio album by the English progressive rock band Pink Floyd, based on their soundtrack for the French film "La Vallée", by Barbet Schroeder.  It was released in the United Kingdom on 2 June 1972, and a few weeks later in the United States, by Harvest Records, reaching number 6 and number 46 respectively.
