Lights, Camera, Roar
Wednesday August 13th 2014
It’s silly to guess a profession by Sun sign. But this is the silly season – and there are an awful lot of film directors born under the sign of the Lion. Creative, passionate, theatrical, charismatic – and with a big vision — it figures.
So this week’s birthdays include Alfred Hitchcock, Roman Polanski, Cecil B DeMille, Ben Affleck, Wim Wenders and two great actors turned directors Robert Redford and Gene Kelly.
