Walter Hill
January 10, 1942 (84 years old) in Long Beach, California, USA
Walter Wesley Hill (born January 10, 1942) is an American filmmaker. Hill is known for male-dominated action films and revival of the Western. He said in an interview, "Every film I've done has been a Western," and elaborated in another, "The Western is ultimately a stripped down moral universe that is, whatever the dramatic problems are, beyond the normal avenues of social control and social alleviation of the problem, and I like to do that even within contemporary stories."
