<div>Rainer Werner Fassbinder (May 31, 1945 – June 10, 1982), German movie director and actor, was one of the most important representatives of the New German Cinema. <br/> <br/>He was born in the Bavarian town of Bad Wörishofen. In his short life he not only made 43 films (including two shorts and the 15 1/2 hour Berlin Alexanderplatz), but he also worked as an actor (film and theatre), cameraman, composer, designer, editor, producer and theatre manager. <br/> <br/>Fassbinder's prodigious cinematic output is legendary. He made, on average, a film every hundred days. His intense discipline and phenomenal creative energy when working were in violent contrast with the excesses of abasement and tortured relationships of his personal life with the people he drew around him in a surrogate family of actors (including Kurt Raab and Hanna Schygulla), technicians and cameramen (notably Michael Ballhaus) in a similar way to John Cassavetes. <br/> <br/>Fassbinder died of a drug overdose at the age of 37. There is debate as to whether this was a deliberate drug overdose. His death is often considered to mark the end of New German Cinema. <br/> <br/>There is a biography in English, Fassbinder: The Life and Work of a Provocative Genius by Christian Braad Thomsen, translated by Martin Chalmers <br/> <br/>Udo Kier of Story of O and Ace Ventura: Pet Detective fame, was a protégée of Fassbinder's, and also his partner. <br/> <br/>Fassbinder Foundation <br/> <br/>http://www.fassbinderfoundation.de/ <br/> <br/>Fan Site <br/> <br/>http://www.rafamorata.com/fassbinder.html <br/> <br/>IMDB <br/> <br/>http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001202/ <br/> <br/>Senses of Cinema Critical Director Database <br/> <br/>http://www.sensesofcinema.com/contents/directors/02/fassbinder.html</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://tribes.tribe.net/1ceebf5d-6dd9-4120-bccc-26e1893ecb9b">Fassbinder</a> - 0 replies </div>
