William Faulkner

William Faulkner, one of the 20th century's most gifted novelists, wrote for the movies in part because he could not make enough money from his novels and short stories to support his growing number of dependants. The author of such acclaimed novels as "The Sound and the Fury" and "Absalom, Absalom!", Faulkner received official screen credits for just six theatrical releases, five of which were with director Howard Hawks. Faulkner received the Nobel Prize for Literature for 1949 and he received two Pulitzer Prizes, for "A Fable" in '1955 and "The Reivers", which was published shortly before he died in 1962.

威廉·福克纳是20世纪最具天赋的小说家之一，他之所以参与电影剧本创作，部分原因在于其小说与短篇故事的稿酬难以支撑日益增长的家庭开支。这位创作了《喧哗与骚动》《押沙龙，押沙龙！》等备受赞誉作品的作家，在院线公映影片中仅获得六次正式署名，其中五部是与导演霍华德·霍克斯合作。福克纳于1949年荣获诺贝尔文学奖，并两度获得普利策奖——1955年凭《寓言》获奖，1962年逝世前夕出版的《掠夺者》再获殊荣。
