488887, the filmmakers who are all 3 - actor/writer/director - post Posted by Wordman, Sat Nov-28-09 03:14 AM
was having convo about the few filmmakers who are an actor, writer, and director. And since we all know I love to share my film convos with PTP... Post filmmakers who are (and/or qualify as) an actor, a writer, AND a director.

Ron also wins for being a big time producer.

though I guess the writing on Kane is probably much more due to Mankiewicz.

488978, oh yeah, that's all Mankiewicz Posted by Wordman, Sat Nov-28-09 07:46 PM

And here we can add producer, studio boss, and if we define the term loosely enough, composer.

489431, i'm ashamed to know this Posted by zero, Wed Dec-02-09 02:59 AM
but i'm pretty sure that's his brother eric
however, wes is a voice in "fantastic mr fox" and i believe one of the voices of the tennis commentators in "royal tenenbaums"

489378, That's a stretch if I ever saw one Posted by zuma1986, Tue Dec-01-09 08:53 PM
I mean just b/c you're in a film doesn't really make you an actor. I don't consider Stan Lee an actor and he's probably done more work than Cameron Crowe has.

488983, I actually love it. Posted by xbenzive, Sat Nov-28-09 08:12 PM
But from what I've seen in PTP the census tend to be that he used to be the poster boy of the hipster revolution in the beginning. I like Scrub, although I haven't seen it lately, but what I hope for Mr. Braff is making great films, instead of starring in average films. __________________________________________

489062, 2 questionables Posted by go mack, Sun Nov-29-09 09:36 PM
Clint Eastwood
Kevin Costner
not sure if they did any writing on their projects tho, but got the actor, director, producer
|
489390, No for either Posted by zuma1986, Tue Dec-01-09 09:12 PM
But I would have guessed that Clint would have at least a co-writing credit for one of his films but I guess not.

489448, Just watched "Waiting For Guffman" for the first time last night Posted by quikfit, Wed Dec-02-09 08:53 AM
saw this post and hoped somebody had mentioned him.
|
489582, Even though most of his movies are improv Posted by zuma1986, Wed Dec-02-09 07:54 PM
The basic concepts for them are so great. They could easily work as dramatic films just as well as comedies.
|
489381, Emilio Estevez Posted by zuma1986, Tue Dec-01-09 08:59 PM
He's actually not that bad a director either, I'm sure if he worked hard enough he could be taken more serious.

489386, Spike Jonze Posted by zuma1986, Tue Dec-01-09 09:07 PM
Yes he's only acted in 1 legitimate role but the post didn't have a set criteria. I figure b/c it's more than just a bit part like Cameron Crowe or Hitchcock.
|
489387, Martin Scorsese Posted by zuma1986, Tue Dec-01-09 09:10 PM
Mostly bit parts but his performances in Taxi Driver and Dreams are both powerful and I think get him enough credit to be considered somewhat of an actor. I highly recommend watching Dreams for his performance alone.
|
489392, Sylvester Stallone Posted by zuma1986, Tue Dec-01-09 09:16 PM
I still can't believe he wrote both Rhinestone Cowboy and Staying Alive. I figured RC was a studio pic that he got suckered into and Staying Alive was just to expand his directing muscle and get his brother into the film industry but I guess he had passion for both.... for some reason
|
489393, Peter Berg Posted by zuma1986, Tue Dec-01-09 09:18 PM
I really hope he's able to write something as good as FNL again. This guy is all over in terms of quality of work he chooses to do.
