American film director and screenwriter known for intimate, emotionally raw dramas including Blue Valentine, The Place Beyond the Pines, and The Light Between the Oceans.

Directed Blue Valentine (reviewed here); known publicly as a writer-director of character-driven films.

A single DeBaser review of Derek Cianfrance's Blue Valentine offers an ironic, sometimes mocking read. The reviewer praises the film's photography and editing while delivering a critical, comedic retelling of the plot. Overall the review rates the film 3/5 and frames it as emotionally raw but imperfect.

For:Film enthusiasts of character-driven dramas, readers of DeBaser, and fans of Blue Valentine or intimate relationship dramas.

 Blue Valentine is not a gay movie. And I say this with disappointment, I admit.
