Curiosidades

The Walker is a 2007 independent crime drama film written and directed by Paul Schrader and starring Woody Harrelson, Kristin Scott Thomas, Lauren Bacall, Ned Beatty, Lily Tomlin, Willem Dafoe, Moritz Bleibtreu and Mary Beth Hurt. It is the fourth installment in Schrader's night workers series of films, starting with Taxi Driver in 1976, followed by American Gigolo in 1980 and Light Sleeper in 1992.

Production

Schrader completed the script in 2002. Initially the film was to be a direct sequel to American Gigolo, with Julian Kaye (played by Richard Gere) as the lead character. The director originally wanted Kevin Kline to play the lead.

Years later, Schrader would lament the film on his Facebook page as "the most distressing failure" of his career. He also said that the film was miscast and that he wanted openly gay actor Rupert Everett as the lead.

The Page character was based on Jerry Zipkin, for whom the term "walker" was coined.
