Alex Cox

Alexander Cox is a British film director, screenwriter, nonfiction author and sometime actor, notable for his idiosyncratic style and approach to scripts.

Cox has previously cited Luis Buñuel and Akira Kurosawa as influences,[2] as well as the great Western movie directors Sergio Leone, Sam Peckinpah, and John Ford.

While he once directed films for Universal Pictures, such as Repo Man and Walker, since the late 1980s, he has found himself on a self-described blacklist, and turned to producing independent films.

Alex Cox has written 3 books in total, his Latest being 10,000 Ways to Die published by Kamera Books in 2008
