George Miller, currently the toast of the town for <i>Mad Max: Fury Road</i> also directed <i>Babe: Pig in the City</i> and the two <i>Hapy Feet</i> movies. Robert Wise, who directed <i>The Sound of Music</i> also directed <i>The Haunting</i> and <i>The Day the Earth Stood Still</i>.<br /><br />One has to wonder how a career path like that happens, no?SJHoneywellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13550007053995112090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3166297507174717122.post-17851432045393993742015-05-28T01:39:38.391-05:002015-05-28T01:39:38.391-05:00Bob Clark's career is one of the most mystifyi...Bob Clark's career is one of the most mystifying in film history. You'd never guess from this film (nor the other horror films he made on either side of it) that he would eventually be responsible for the Baby Geniuses films, and yet there they are at the end of his resume... with the first two Porky's films somewhere in between. I know a lot of directors find themselves working in different genres rather than sticking to one, but there's something about that particular career arc which seems more than usually perplexing.James Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02458973377509956909noreply@blogger.com
