简介： Wikipedia Biography: Jon Jost (born 16 May 1943 in Chicago) is an American independent filmmaker and a good example of an auteur, a director who exerts complete creative control over his films.Born in Chicago to a military family, he grew up in Georgia, Kansas, Japan, Italy, Germany and Virginia. He began making films in January 1963 after being expelled from college. In 1965 he was imprisoned by US authorities for 2 years 3 months for refusal to cooperate with the Selective Service system. On his release he became engaged in anti-war activities, working for the draft resistance, Chicago Mobilization, and helped found the Chicago branch of what became Newsreel, the New Left Film production and distribution group. Highly transient, Jost has lived for periods in Chicago (1967-8); Ben Lomand, Calif. (1968-9); near Cottage Grove, Or. (1970); near Kalispell, Montana (1971-75); Leucadia, Calif. (1976-77); Los Angeles (1978); London (1979 and 1996)); Berlin (1980-81; 1984-5); Butte, Mt. (1986); New York City (1988-89); San Francisco (1989-92); Rome (1993-94; 1998-2002); Lisbon (1996-7); Paris (1997-8); Port Hadlock, Wa. (2002-3); Portland, Or. (2005-6); Lincoln, Ne. (2006-7).Self-taught as a filmmaker, he made his first full-length film in 1974, and has since that time focused on a wide range of American issues in his films. Since 1996 he has worked almost exclusively in digital video (DV), completing twelve features and many short films. Two of his most successful films are All the Vermeers in New York (1990) and The Bed You Sleep In (1993).Jost's work has shown since 1976 in major film festivals around the world. The Museum of Modern Art, NYC, screened a complete retrospective of his work from January 18 to February 19, 1991. This program was completely repeated at the UCLA Film Archive, Los Angeles, (March-April), and partially repeated at the American Film Institute Film Theater at the J.F. Kennedy Center, Washington, DC, (February), the Kabuki Theater in San Francisco
