Edited by Yvonne Tasker, this second edition gathers fifty profiles of contemporary film directors working across different national backgrounds and genres. Each entry places a filmmaker’s career, major works, and contribution to cinema in view, making the volume useful both for comparison and for focused study of individual directors. The revised edition adds twelve entries and pairs every profile with a filmography and suggestions for further reading. Names range from Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg to Sofia Coppola, Julie Dash, Ang Lee, Pedro Almodóvar, Guillermo del Toro, and Jackie Chan, mapping a broad cross-section of modern filmmaking.
