Paul Schrader, it's been too long...

It's been more than three decades since writer/director Paul Schrader earthquaked the film industry with his screenplay for Martin Scorsese's Taxi Driver, but to us he's still as relevant as ever. He's written - along with Taxi Driver - some of our favorite movies, including Raging Bull, Mishima, and Affliction, yet he hasn't written a film since 1999's Bringing Out the Dead. He's back, and from the looks of this first trailer for his political intrigue drama The Walker, he's back in a big way.
