biography
New York-based writer-director has worked in independent films since 1980. DiCillo began as a director of photography for independent filmmakers, most notably Jim Jarmusch for whom he shot the features "Permanent Vacation" (1980), "Stranger Than Paradise" (1984) and the short "Coffee and Cigarettes" (1986). DiCillo moved to directing and screenwriting with the off-beat and uneven "Johnny Suede" (1991). Adapting his own one man stage show, DiCillo cast Brad Pitt as the title character, a talentless musician--with a huge pompadour--who comes to terms with the shortcomings of his life.DiCillo
