Film Home Alone and
Home Alone-2: Lost in New York Comedy hits of American and world cinema, which brought Chris Columbus to the number of leading Hollywood directors. Stories about how a funny and independent boy (Macolej Kalkin), forgotten at home by his parents, arranges a “welcoming” reception to robbers, appeared in our early criminal 90s and sharply contrasted with the not greenhouse Russian reality.
Perhaps it is no coincidence that Chris Columbus was later invited to create a children's cinematic tale of a new generation. It was he who shot the first two parts of the Harry Potter book:
"Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" (2001)
"Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" (2002). Official sources report that the place of the director in the hyped literary saga went to him thanks to his loyalty to British actors.
The biography of Columbus can be considered classic for a high-ranking creative worker of the Hollywood “dream factory”. Born in 1958 in Pennsylvania and raised in Ohio, the child from childhood “accused” to heroic American comics and monsteroidal horror films. Dreams of superheroes as they grew older transformed into the bread idea of professional specialization in the field of creating comic series.
Technological progress has given children’s dreams a cinematic dimension. The purchase of an eight-millimeter camera was a turning point in the life of Columbus, who began shooting amateur shorts in elementary school at John F. Kennedy Private School in Warren.
And then there was the film department of the Tisch School of Art at New York University. Columbus started writing scripts. They were quite successful: he sold the twenty-minute tape “Ginzo” to television producers. She later saw her.
Steven Spielberg Another manuscript of Columbus hit the master's desk. It was.
Gremlins - black satire on the filmed by Spielberg "Aliens", collecting financial cream of audience interest in 1982.
Under the wing of Spielberg was hearty, but Columbus achieved his own directorial success only after he moved to the firm.
"The Adventures of the Nanny" (1987),
"Hotel of Broken Hearts" (1988) and dismissal from the post of screenwriter of the film
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade" Spielberg and
George Lucas , the director "shot" the duplet of adventures with Culkin in the title role.
This was followed by Mrs. Doubtfire, The Hundred Year Man, the Harry Potter saga, which brought Columbus to the list of most sought-after film directors for family viewing. /
