Chris Rock
from The Popcorn Auteur
You may not think "filmmaker" when you think Chris Rock, but he's written and directed three films. His first two films were critical disappointments; however, his latest, Top Five, was certified fresh on Rotten Tomatoes. In this episode, we take a look at Rock's limited filmography to see if the comedian is a hidden auteur.
