Paul Schrader, a director whose name has become synonymous with anguished existential dramas, unveiled American Gigolo in 1980—a film that, despite turning 45, remains provocative, multifaceted, and strikingly relevant. Produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, the movie is a unique blend of melodrama, erotic thriller, and crime drama, steeped in the aesthetics of glamour and decadence.
