Beyond Rangoon
Beyond Rangoon is a 1995 drama film directed by John Boorman about Laura Bowman( played by Patricia Arquette), an American tourist who vacations in Burma( Myanmar) in 1988, the year in which the 8888 Uprising takes place.
The film was mostly filmed in Malaysia, and, though a work of fiction, was inspired by real people and real events.
Bowman joins, albeit initially unintentionally, political rallies with university students protesting for democracy, and travels with the student leader U Aung Ko throughout Burma.
There, they see the brutality of the military dictators of the State Law and Order Restoration Council( SLORC), and attempt to escape to Thailand.
The film was an official selection at the 1995 Cannes Film Festival.
The film may have had an impact beyond movie screens, however.
Only weeks into its European run, the Burmese military junta freed Nobel Peace Prize winner Aung San Suu Kyi( depicted in the film) after several years under strict house arrest.
The celebrated democracy leader thanked the filmmakers in her first interview with the BBC.
Suu Kyi was re-arrested a few years later, but" Beyond Rangoon" had already helped raise world attention on a previously" invisible" tragedy: the massacres of 1988 and the cruelty of her country's military rulers.
David Lean
Sir David Lean( 25 March 190816 April 1991) was an English film director, producer, screenwriter and editor.
Widely considered as one of the most influential directors of all time, Lean was mostly famous for his large- scale epics such as" The Bridge on the River Kwai"( 1957)," Lawrence of Arabia"( 1962)," Doctor Zhivago"( 1965) and" A Passage to India"( 1984).
He also directed adaptations of Charles Dickens novels" Great Expectations"( 1946) and" Oliver Twist"( 1948), and the romantic drama" Brief Encounter"( 1945).
Originally a film editor in the early 1930s, Lean made his directorial debut with 1942's" In Which We Serve", which was the first of four collaborations with Noël Coward.
Beginning with" Summertime" in 1955, Lean began to make internationally co-produced films financed by the big Hollywood studios; in 1970, however, the critical failure of his film" Ryan's Daughter" led him to take a fourteen- year break from filmmaking, during which he planned a number of film projects which never came to fruition.
In 1984 he had a career revival with" A Passage to India", adapted from E. M. Forster's novel; it was an instant hit with critics but proved to be the last film Lean would direct.
Lean's affinity for pictorialism and inventive editing techniques has led him to be lauded by directors such as Steven Spielberg, Stanley Kubrick, Martin Scorsese, and Ridley Scott.
Lean was voted 9th greatest film director of all time in the British Film Institute" Sight& SoundDirectors' Top Directors" poll in 2002.
Nominated seven times for the Academy Award for Best Director, which he won twice for" The Bridge on the River Kwai" and" Lawrence of Arabia", he has seven films in the British Film Institute's Top 100 British Films( with three of them being in the top five) and was awarded the AFI Life Achievement Award in 1990.
