Julian Schnabel
Known for
Julian Schnabel is an American director rather than a performer whose credit is the kind that scrolls past at the end. 'At Eternity's Gate' is the one title here with a genuinely wide audience. 'The Diving Bell and the Butterfly' belongs on any short list of the work. If there is a home genre here, it is drama. A 30-year run behind the camera is not a common thing.
