Question
In one film, this director zooms in on a shot of pepto-bismol mixing into a glass of whisky. A wide shot of a man approaching from the distance on a winding snowy forest path cuts to the bloody remains of a man lying dead in a film by this director, another of whose films uses a 220-degree VR lens to shoot fictional scenes of Abu Ghraib. This director has ended multiple films with a man and woman touching through prison glass, one of many nods to Robert (*) Bresson’s Pickpocket. This director, who takes studio-requested breaks from Facebook before releases, filmed a character who wraps himself in barbed wire before kissing a woman as the camera rotates around them at the end of another film. For 10 points, name this director of The Card Counter and First Reformed, who also wrote Taxi Driver. ■END■
