I’m sending out my very best wishes for a speedy recovery to Paul Schrader, who has had his fair share of health issues these last few years.
Schrader now has COVID and is bedridden in a hospital with pneumonia and breathing difficulties. It’s crushing to hear this, but he can pull through.
If you remember, Schrader filmed his latest movie, “The Master Gardener,” with an oxygen tank in hand and even refused to go to the hospital during the last week of production. At the Venice premiere of the film, he cryptically stated that it would be his "last rodeo”.
The maestro will not go down without a fight. Get well soon, Paul.
