Richard “Rick” Linklater is an Academy Award nominated American film director and writer. For several years Linklater made many short films that were, more than anything, exercises and experiments in film techniques. He finally completed his first feature, the rarely seen ?It’s Impossible to Learn to Plow by Reading Books?.
While gaining a cult following for his independent films, such as ?Dazed and Confused?, ?Waking Life? and ?A Scanner Darkly?, his mainstream comedies, ?School of Rock? and the remake of ?Bad News Bears?, have gained him wider recognition.
In 2005, he was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay for his film ?Before Sunset?. Other Linklater films include ?Fast Food Nation?.
