Mark Christopher (born July 8, 1963 in Fort Dodge, Iowa) is a screenwriter and director most well known as the director of the Ryan Phillippe, Mike Meyers, Salma Hayek, Neve Campbell and Mark Ruffalo-starring film, ''54.'' Within the film community, he is better known for the success of the director's cut of the film that premiered at the Berlin International Film Festival in 2015. With over 30 minutes of re-shoots cut out of the 1998 version, and over 40 minutes re-instated, the film was universally lauded by critics and hailed as a "jubilant resurrection" and "a lost gay classic."
