Dr. George Miller was born on March 3, 1945 in Queensland, Australia. In 1971, practicing physician-therapist George Miller came to the cinema, enrolling at the University of Melbourne, where he began to study filmmaking. Along with Byron Kennedy, who brought him to the movies, he worked on the short comedy Movie Violence Part 1 and the documentary The Devil in an Evening Dress. The same Kennedy acted as a producer of the film "Mad Max" - George Miller was the writer and director. This film, now a classic of a futuristic action movie and had successful sequels, made known the name of the young director. Two years later, the second part of Mad Max, which had a huge international success, opened the way to Hollywood and George Miller himself, and little-known actor Mel Gibson. In the United States, one of the successful works of the director was an outstanding adaptation of the novel by John Updike “Eastwick witches”, in which such actors as Jack Nicholson, Susan Sarandon, Michelle Pfeiffer and Cher flashed. Then the interest of the audience and critics attracted the drama "Lorenzo's Oil". In addition to film directors, George Miller also does not leave aside production activities, and also writes scripts. For example, according to his script, a good family picture "The Four-legged Baby" was staged, and the second part, released in 1998, Miller shot himself - and also according to his script.
