Larry Peerce

Highest Rated: 100% One Potato, Two Potato (1964)

Lowest Rated: 0% The Bell Jar (1979)

Birthday: Apr 19, 1930

Birthplace: Bronx, New York, USA

Began his career as a TV director and earned critical acclaim for his feature debut, "One Potato, Two Potato" (1964), shot on a budget of only $230,000. A sensitive and compelling account of an interracial marriage, the film earned star Barbara Barrie a Best Actress award at Cannes. Peerce's subsequent film work has been erratic, though he scored another hit with "Goodbye, Columbus" (1969), adapted from the novel by Philip Roth. He continues to work in TV.
