Mark Rappaport is an American independent/underground film director who has been working sporadically since the early 1970s. A lifelong New Yorker, born and raised in Brooklyn, New York, he graduated from Brooklyn College in 1964. His films are often marked by high camp, melodrama, deadpan humor, ennui, often using music, archival footage and excerpts from Hollywood films.
Rappaport has been noted by Roger Ebert, Jonathan Rosenbaum, Ray Carney, J. Hoberman, Dave Kehr, and Stuart Klawans.[1][2][3] Ray Carney considers him the greatest contemporary American film director.[4] Currently, Rappaport is in a dispute with Ray Carney while trying to retrieve his films and life work which were stored by Carney when Rappaport spent 7 years in France. The matter has resulted in a lawsuit and difficulties for Rappaport to present his films.[5] Carney maintains skillfully that Rappaport gifted the films and is engaging in cyber bullying him. [6]
Rappaport's last three features, all made in the 1990s were Rock Hudson's Home Movies, From the Journals of Jean Seberg, and The Silver Screen: Color Me Lavender. [7]
