Brief Encounter review – 70th anniversary rerelease of David Lean classic The Guardian Thursday 5 November 2015 21.45 GMT Last modified on Thursday 5 November 2015 21.46 GMT http://www.theguardian.com/film/2015/nov/05/brief-encounter-review-70th-anniversary
David Lean 1908-1991
British director of both intimate films like "Brief Encounter" and "Great Expectations" and epics like "Bridge on the River Kwai" and "Lawrence of Arabia"
(...)
Lean's films won 28 Academy Awards, including seven each for "Bridge on the River Kwai" (1957) and "Lawrence of Arabia" (1962).
He received best-director Oscars for "River Kwai" and "Lawrence," and both films also won the Academy Award as best movie.
(...)
Lean was a meticulous craftsman noted for technical wizardry, subtle manipulation of emotions, superb production values, authenticity and taste.
He was one of the very few director who edited his own films, and he also adapted or co-adapted half a dozen of them. http://www.nytimes.com/1991/04/17/obituaries/david-lean-film-director-dies-at-83.html
