Philip Kaufman
Philip Kaufman( born October 23, 1936) is an American film director and screenwriter who has directed fifteen films over a career spanning more than six decades.
He has been described as a" maverick" and an" iconoclast," notable for his versatility and independence.
He is considered an" auteur", whose films have always expressed his personal vision.
Kaufman's works have included genres such as realism, horror, fantasy, erotica, Westerns, underworld crime, and inner city gangs.
His choice of topics has been eclectic and sometimes controversial, having adapted novels with diverse themes and stories.
Examples are Milan Kundera's" The Unbearable Lightness of Being"( 1988), Michael Crichton's" Rising Sun"( 1993), a remake of" Invasion of the Body Snatchers"( 1978), and the erotic writings of Anaïs Nin's" Henry& June".
His film" The Wanderers"( 1979) has achieved cult status.
But his greatest success was Tom Wolfe's true- life" The Right Stuff", which received eight Academy Award nominations, including Best Picture.
According to film historian Annette Insdorf," no other living American director has so consistently and successfully made movies for adults, tackling sensuality, artistic creation, and manipulation by authorities."
Other critics note that Kaufman's films are" strong on mood and atmosphere," with powerful cinematography and a" lyrical, poetic style" to portray different historic periods.
His later films have a somewhat European style, but the stories always" stress individualism and integrity, and are clearly American."

The film's budget is unknown, but Kaufman said it was relatively low.
After an advance screening," The Wanderers" premiered on July 13, 1979, to mostly positive reviews.
The film was a financial success, grossing$ 23 million at the worldwide box office.
On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the film has a rating of 89 percent.
Peter Stack of the" San Francisco Chronicle" praised Kaufman's directing and the performances of Wahl and Tony Ganios.
The film's increasing popularity and cult status led to" The Wanderers" being given a theatrical re-release in the U.S. by Warner Bros. in 1996.
According to Kaufman," it took a long time for[ the film] to find[ an] audience".
