David Lowery is an American filmmaker known for directing, writing, and editing films that span independent cinema and mainstream studio projects. His work often features contemplative pacing, visual lyricism, and themes of time, loss, and folklore, earning him recognition as a distinctive voice in contemporary American film.
These movies—“Ain’t Them Bodies Saints,” “Pete’s Dragon,” “ A Ghost Story,” “The Old Man & the Gun” and “ The Green Knight ”—are simultaneously intimate and infinite, indicative of how mischievous a force time is in them, and of how Lowery’s dreamlike style folds characters’ memories into what feels like our own.
