Paul Williams is a key figure in New Hollywood and cinema generally. Along with Ed Pressman, he formed Pressman Williams Productions which brought to the screens the likes of Brian de Palma and Terrence Malick. He directed a number of films beginning in 1969 with
Out of It starring Barry Gordon and Jon Voight and going on with such cult underground films as
The Revolutionary and
