Scott Alexander and Larry Karaszewski

Scott Alexander and Larry Karaszewski met as roommates at USC film school and kicked off their careers as the writers of offbeat biopics with Tim Burton’s "Ed Wood" in 1994. Their other films include Milos Forman’s "The People vs. Larry Flynt" and "Man on the Moon," Paul Schrader’s "Auto Focus" (which they produced but didn't write) and, this year, Burton’s "Big Eyes," which they also produced.
