Paul Thomas Anderson
Paul Thomas Anderson, along with directors like Quentin Tarantino, is among the early generation of "video-store filmmakers," directors who grew up in the era of the VCR and began their early filmmaking efforts on camcorders. Although determined to be a filmmaker, he withdrew from NYU’s film program after only two days, deciding to learn by making his own film. The movie, a short entitled Cigarettes & Coffee, screened at Sundance in 1993. It was this film that led to his first feature film production.
