There ain't much to write about tonight. The skies feel bereft of the stars. And yet the city shines with its own splendour. So as I try to enjoy the little things, and feel like reminiscing of the old again, I figured that these pictures could do the talking for themselves. Pictures worthy of being framed and kept beside the most expensive artistic item in your house. Pictures of four directors, much younger then, with their destinies not yet defined. They took their chances, they made their mark, and they still continue to go strong after so many years. Salutations to their brilliance!
He may be completely unrecognisable from this picture, if not for the cast around him. So the one with the unkempt hair standing beside Roy Scheider is Steven Spielberg shooting for the 1975 sensation Jaws.
A young De Niro is easily distinguishable. But can you recognise a young Martin Scorsese? Scorsese is infact the guy on the right in the above picture, on the sets of the classic movie of 1976 Taxi Driver.
A vision that changed a lot in the sci-fi industry! This is a young James Cameron passionately explaining to Linda Hamilton on the sets of the 1984 blockbuster The Terminator.
Before we met ET, aliens were looked on as a viscous breed altogether, thanks in no small way to this man. Here is Ridley Scott in a rather pensive mood with Sigourney Weaver on the sets of 1979's Alien.
Looking forward to many more great movies from them!
