Скачать или смотреть WILLIAM DICKERSON: Director's Reel

William Dickerson is a filmmaker, author, musician, and professor
whose work has been recognized worldwide.

William Dickerson's debut feature film "Detour," which he wrote and directed, was hailed as an "Underground Hit" by The Village Voice, an "emotional and psychological roller-coaster ride" by The Examiner, and nothing short of "authentic" by The New York Times. He self-released his metafictional satire, "The Mirror," which opened YoFi Fest’s inaugural film festival, and his third feature film, "Don’t Look Back," debuted on television to over 1.1 million viewers. His work has been recognized by film festivals across the country.

His first book, "No Alternative," was declared, "a sympathetic coming-of-age story deeply embedded in '90s music" by Kirkus Reviews. His second book, "DETOUR: Hollywood: How To Direct a Microbudget Film (or any film, for that matter)," was called a "candidly practical, thoroughly 'user friendly', and essential instruction guide — especially for independent filmmakers working on shoestring budgets," by Midwest Book Review.

His writing has been published by Indiewire, MovieMaker Magazine, Filmmaker Magazine, The Hollywood Reporter’s The Wrap, Script Magazine, Talkhouse, and SaveTheCat.com. He adapted and directed the film version of "No Alternative," which stars Michaela Cavazos, Conor Proft, Chloe Levine, Kathryn Erbe and Harry Hamlin. The Los Angeles Times called the movie as "a remarkably assured and deeply felt grunge-era coming-of-age picture," and Film Threat said it was "a rare indie gem that delivers solidly on all fronts with no missteps."
