В Guardian - потрясающая история про режиссёра Андре де Тота, снимавшего нуар и первый хоррор в формате 3D. По-моему, ни одного из его фильмов я не видела, но теперь очень хочу.
Рассказывал он про себя, в частности, следующее:
...he was taken for dead during a student riot in Vienna and woke up in the morgue; and how, when his girlfriend fell pregnant and her father whisked her away for an enforced abortion, de Toth saved her when he discovered her father visited male prostitutes and threatened blackmail. There was also the story of how during the war he fell in love with an anti-Nazi jewellery courier who had a passport made under the name of Mrs de Toth before embarking on a dangerous mission, and how the passport was returned to him covered in blood. Another told of how, while scouting for locations in 1973 in Egypt, he was kidnapped and interrogated by a group of young men who, because of his eye patch, thought he was Israeli minister of defence Moshe Dayan, until he revealed, literally, that he wasn't Jewish.
Кроме всего прочего, 8 лет он был мужем актрисы Вероники Лейк, причёске которой я сегодня пытаюсь подражать.
