David Cronenberg
David Paul Cronenberg (born March 15, 1943) is a Canadian film director and screenwriter. He is a principal originator of the body horror genre, with his films exploring visceral bodily transformation, infectious diseases, and the intertwining of the psychological, physical, and technological. Cronenberg is best known for exploring these themes through sci-fi horror films such as ''Shivers'' (1975), ''Scanners'' (1981), ''Videodrome'' (1983) and ''The Fly'' (1986), though he has also directed dramas, psychological thrillers and gangster films.Cronenberg's films have polarized critics and audiences alike; he has earned critical acclaim and has sparked controversy for his depictions of gore and violence. ''The Village Voice'' called him "the most audacious and challenging narrative director in the English-speaking world". His films have won numerous awards, including the Special Jury Prize for ''Crash'' at the 1996 Cannes Film Festival, a unique award that is distinct from the Jury Prize as it is not given annually, but only at the request of the official jury, who in this case gave the award "for originality, for daring, and for audacity".
From the 2000s to the 2020s, Cronenberg collaborated on several films with Viggo Mortensen, including ''A History of Violence'' (2005), ''Eastern Promises'' (2007), ''A Dangerous Method'' (2011) and ''Crimes of the Future'' (2022). Six of his films were selected to compete for the Palme d'Or, the most recent being ''Crimes of the Future'', which was screened at the 2022 Cannes Film Festival. Provided by Wikipedia
