The Filmmaker's

GUS VAN SANT

24 July 1952, Louisville, Kentucky, USA

If I were looking for an indie picture to rent and watch, I would most likely watch a Gus Van Sant movie. The first movie I saw of his was an HBO movie called, Elephant. I have graduated from that to his most well known film, Good Will Hunting. Not to long ago I got a chance to watch his film titled, Paranoid Park. He recently has made a film about real life Politian Harvey Milk, called well, Milk. I have not seen this movie but I am sure it is just as good as the others I have seen, since it has won 2 Oscars. Gus Van Sant has made a great impact on the indie circuit and I hope he continues to do so.
