Directors: Kathryn Bigelow

4-None

Surveys Kathryn Bigelows work from her performance in the 1983 womens film classic Born in Flames, through her vampire-, cop-, surf-, sci-fi-genre films and, most recently, her highly-acclaimed war films. Her movies are both entertaining and complex, and reveal a deep love and knowledge of film genre and history as well as her distinctive, and very American, auteur vision.
