With more comebacks than even John Travolta, Robert Altman has
always shunned conventional wisdom to find his own voice, and
developed a new kind of filmmaking in the process. When he was
nearly 50 and all but forgotten by Hollywood, he made the brazen
M*A*S*H, which became a worldwide sensation in 1970. Instead of
going mainstream, he made eccentric pictures, some of which were
hits, many more stars of the art-house circuit. Well into his
70s, Altman
shows no sign of slowing down, making up to a film a year--many
of which have become touchstones of the American psyche.
