Paul Schrader

[John Cope]

To indicate the disparity of opinion that is possible here I can say that I much prefer Master Gardener to either of the other entries in the "man in a room" trilogy and prefer by far Light Sleeper, which I consider to be the progenitor of that entire series (it's even explicitly referenced in Card Counter), to any of them (but this is far from a surprise as it's one of my favorite films). I am, however, very much looking forward to the forthcoming The Basics of Philosophy as an extension of the series; it actually sounds like a fine complement in its perversity (and possibly in tone too) to Schrader's earlier and still profoundly underrated Forever Mine.

I agree with you Cope.

That’s a long way from it being one of maybe three films showing any talent, though. I think you forgot about this movie when you made your claim and are now pretending it still works with it

No it was one of the 3.

What were the other two?
