After his early directorial success on “American Gigolo,” that situation has proved to be the rule rather than the exception, with even Schrader’s most critically acclaimed films like “Affliction” or “First Reformed” taking in $2 to $6 million apiece, and many of his lesser-appreciated pictures often grossing in the scant tens of thousands arena....
