He has been married to Christine Lahti for decades. His name is probably best known for "The West Wing". These projects are Holly Hunter in Miss Firecracker, my favorite Spalding Gray monologue as it was filmed for HBO in "Terrors of Pleasure", and the Mike Meyers saga So I Married an Axe-Murderer.

I got nuthin' here

Another shot from each of the movies

Your middle shot is not showing here and the other two shots are of no help at all, still in the dark here.

Here's the middle shot again.

I don't think both #3 shots match each other. But in any case...

Mary Harron
The Moth Diaries + The Notorious Bettie Page + Charlie Says

NEXT

Three films, three stills each, name the director...


FILM ONE:




FILM TWO:




FILM THREE:

David Lean?

Very scenic but not much help

Top one is Ryan’s Daughter so waiting on HP to see if I am correct.

If you know it is Ryan's Daughter and you know David Lean directed Ryan's Daughter why are you unsure whether or not the other two movies are also directed by David Lean? And given that you recognized the first one you had no guess as what the other two movies might be? After Summertime he made five big, color epics. You can't make an educated stab at which two of the other four are pictured?


FILM ONE: Ryan's Daughter







FILM TWO:







FILM THREE:

I wasn’t unsure. I was waiting politely for your response.

I don’t need to identify the other movies. All I had to do was “Name the Director”.

I will put one together now.

Yes, of course it is...
David Lean

Ryan's Daughter


The Bridge on the River Kwai
