[[File:Richard Linklater April 2015.jpg|thumb]]
Richard Linklater is an American filmmaker based out of Austin, Texas. He is, along with [[Steven Soderbergh]] and [[Kevin Smith]], considered one of the most important figures in American Independent Film. His career began with ''Slacker'', a very low-budget ensemble film about twenty-something misfits in Austin. The film was met with critical acclaim, and [[Kevin Smith]] says it was what inspired him to make ''[[Clerks]]''. His second film, ''[[Dazed and Confused]]'' is a cult classic and equally acclaimed. From there, his career is, to say the least, eclectic. He's done two experimental animated films (''[[Waking Life]]'' and ''[[A Scanner Darkly]]''), studio comedies (''[[School of Rock]]'', ''[[Bad News Bears]]''), smaller Indie movies (''[[Fast Food Nation]]'', ''[[Before Sunrise]]'' and ''[[Before Sunset]]''), and an ambitious project called ''Boyhood'', which is being filmed over a period of over 10 years, detailing one young man's childhood from elementary school to high school graduation, with each grade's story being written and shot over a few weeks each year until the project is completed.▼
