Ivan Passer (Czechoslovakia, 1933), Milos Forman's assistant and screenwriter,
debuted with the
20-minute short Fadni Odpoledne/ A Boring Afternoon (1964), adapted from Bohumil Hrabal,
and then opted for a
chamber drama with little plot but a lot of psychological analysis,
Intimni Osvetleni/ Intimate Lighting (1965).
He emigrated to the USA in 1969 with Milos Forman and directed diligent but
hardly groundbreaking movies such as:
Born to Win (1971), a film noir set among junkies,
Law and Disorder (1974) ,
Crime and Passion (1976) ,
Silver Bears (1978),
Cutter's Way (1981),
Creator (1985), adapted from
Jeremy Leven's
1980 novel,
Cutter's Way (1981),
Haunted Summer (1988),
and
Stalin (1992) for television.
