Walter Hill
Walter Hill (born January 10, 1942) is an American film director, screenwriter, and producer. He is widely known for his action films and revival of the Western genre. He has directed such films as "The Warriors", "Hard Times", "The Driver", "Southern Comfort", "48 Hrs." and its sequel "Another 48 Hrs.", "Streets of Fire", "Red Heat", "Last Man Standing", "Undisputed", and "Bullet to the Head", as well as writing the screenplay for the Jim Thompson crime drama "The Getaway" starring Steve McQueen and directed by Sam Peckinpah. He has also directed several episodes of television series such as "Tales from the Crypt" and "Deadwood" and produced the "Alien" films.

Hill said in an interview that "every film I've done has been a Western", and elaborated in another that "the Western is ultimately a stripped down moral universe that is, whatever the dramatic problems are, beyond the normal avenues of social control and social alleviation of the problem, and I like to do that even within contemporary stories".
