Hal Ashby (1929-1988) is considered to be the lost genius of the New Hollywood generation. While his name does not bear the familiarity of, say, Robert Altman or Martin Scorsese, his diverse films are among the best known and most beloved of the era. From the cult classic
Harold and Maude
(1971) to the iconic political satire
Being There
(1979), from the subversive sex comedy
Shampoo
(1975) to the anti-Vietnam romance
Coming Home
(1979), Ashby rejected mainstream conventions while his films attracted both popular and critical praise.
A true actors' director, Ashby drew A-list stars and elicited powerful performances from Jack Nicholson in
The Last Detail
(1973), Warren Beatty and Julie Christie in
, Jon Voight and Jane Fonda in
, and Peter Sellers in
.
