Hal Jr. Hartley (Lindenhurst, 3 novembre 1959) è un regista, sceneggiatore e produttore cinematografico statunitense. Attivo nel cinema indipendente, le sue pellicole di maggior successo, Trust (1990), Amateur (1994) e La follia di Henry (1998), si distinguono per il singolare umorismo e l'inusualità dei personaggi, impegnati in dialoghi di stampo filosofico. I suoi film hanno lanciato la carriera di numerosi attori, come Adrienne Shelly, Edie Falco, Martin Donovan, Parker Posey, Karen Sillas ed Elina Löwensohn. Hartley compone spesso le colonne sonore dei propri lavori dietro lo pseudonimo di Ned Rifle, includendovi regolarmente brani originali di formazioni indipendenti, come Yo La Tengo e PJ Harvey.
