Stuart W. Cooper (born 1942) is an American filmmaker, actor and writer.[1]
Cooper was a resident of the United Kingdom in the 1960s and 1970s where his most notable film appearance was as one of The Dirty Dozen, Roscoe Lever, in 1967.[2] His other film roles included I'll Never Forget What's'isname (1967) as one of Oliver Reed's film crew, and Subterfuge (1968) starring Gene Barry and Joan Collins.[3]
Overlord, his 1975 WWII collage docudrama, originally failed to get US theatrical distribution and was only shown there in select screenings and on television (including a run on California's Z Channel in 1982, which was highlighted in the acclaimed 2004 TV documentary film Z Channel: A Magnificent Obsession).[4][5]
Accolades
His 1974 film Little Malcolm was entered into the 24th Berlin International Film Festival, where it won the Silver Bear.[6] The following year, Overlord won the Silver Bear – Special Jury Prize at the 25th Berlin Festival.[7]
