Paul Haggis' filmography leans more towards character-driven dramas than explosions and special effects. However, he's no stranger to box office success. "Crash" (2005), a film he wrote and directed that explores racial tensions in Los Angeles, became a commercial hit despite some critical debate. It grossed over $100 million worldwide and even won Best Picture at the Oscars. His influence extends beyond directing: he penned the screenplay for "Million Dollar Baby" (2004), a Clint Eastwood-directed boxing drama that earned him another Best Picture Oscar and went on to become a major success with over $216 million in global box office. Haggis also co-wrote the James Bond reboot films "Casino Royale" (2006) and "Quantum of Solace" (2008), both critically acclaimed and commercially successful, each exceeding $500 million at the box office. So, while not a traditional blockbuster director, Haggis' writing and directing talents have demonstrably connected with audiences on a large scale.
