Question: Do director of film Stardust Memories and director of film Roseland (film) have the same nationality?

Brian Johnson( born 1939 or 1940) is a British designer and director of film and television special effects. <SEP> Roseland is a 1977 Merchant Ivory Productions' anthology film with a screenplay by Ruth Prawer Jhabvala. The film is made up of three connected short features:" The Waltz The Hustle" and" The Peabody". All three stories share a theme of the protagonists trying to find the right dance partner, and all are set in the Roseland Ballroom in New York City. It was directed by James Ivory and produced by Ismail Merchant. <SEP> He began his career as a comedy writer in the 1950s, writing jokes and scripts for television and publishing several books of short humor pieces. In the early 1960s, he performed as a stand-up comedian, emphasizing monologues rather than traditional jokes, where he developed the persona of an insecure, intellectual, fretful nebbish, which he maintains is quite different from his real-life personality. In 2004 Comedy Central ranked Allen fourth on a list of the 100 greatest stand-up comedians, while a UK survey ranked Allen the third-greatest comedian. By the mid-1960s Allen was writing and directing films, first specializing in slapstick comedies before moving into dramatic material influenced by European art cinema during the 1970s, and alternating between comedies and dramas to the present. He is often identified as part of the New Hollywood wave of filmmakers of the mid-1960s to late 1970s. Allen often stars in his films, typically in the persona he developed as a standup. Some of the best-known of his over 50 films are "Annie Hall" (1977), "Manhattan" (1979), "Hannah and Her Sisters" (1986), "Crimes and Misdemeanors" (1989), and "Midnight in Paris" (2011). In 2007 he said "Stardust Memories" (1980), "The Purple Rose of Cairo" (1985), and "Match Point" (2005) were his best films. Critic Roger Ebert described Allen as "a treasure of the cinema". Allen has received many accolades and honors throughout his career. He has won four Academy Awards: three for Best Original Screenplay and one for Best Director. Heywood Allen (born Allan Stewart Konigsberg; December 1, 1935), better known as Woody Allen, is an American director, writer, actor, and comedian whose career spans more than six decades. He also garnered nine British Academy Film Awards. His screenplay for "Annie Hall" was named the funniest screenplay by the Writers Guild of America in its list of the "101 Funniest Screenplays". In 2011 PBS televised the film biography "Woody Allen: A Documentary" on its series "American Masters". <SEP> Rachel Feldman( born August 22, 1954) is an American director of film and television and screenwriter of television films. <SEP> James Francis Ivory( born June 7, 1928) is an American film director, producer, and screenwriter. For many years he worked extensively with Indian- born film producer Ismail Merchant, his domestic as well as professional partner, and with screenwriter Ruth Prawer Jhabvala. All three were principals in Merchant Ivory Productions, whose films have won six Academy Awards; Ivory himself has been nominated for four Oscars, winning one. Ivory ’s most notable directorial work includes" A Room with a View"( 1986)," Maurice"( 1987)," Howards End"( 1992), and" The Remains of the Day"( 1993). For his work on" Call Me by Your Name"( 2017), which he wrote and produced, Ivory won awards for Best Adapted Screenplay from the Academy Awards, British Academy of Film and Television Arts, Writers Guild of America, the Critics' Choice Awards, and the Scripter Awards, among others. Upon winning the Oscar and BAFTA at the age of 89, Ivory became the oldest- ever winner in any category for both awards. <SEP> The film is about a filmmaker who recalls his life and his loves- the inspirations for his films- while attending a retrospective of his work. The film is shot in black and white and is reminiscent of Federico Fellini's" 8 ½"( 1963), which it parodies. " Stardust Memories" was nominated for a Writers Guild of America Award for Best Comedy written directly for screen, but was not warmly received by critics on its original release, and is not among the most renowned works in Allen's filmography. The film has nonetheless been re-evaluated to some extent, with modern reception more often positive than negative. Allen, who denies that the work is autobiographical and has expressed regret that audiences interpreted it as such, even considers it to be one of his finest, alongside" The Purple Rose of Cairo" and" Match Point". Stardust Memories is a 1980 American comedy- drama film written and directed by Woody Allen and starring himself, Charlotte Rampling, Jessica Harper, Marie- Christine Barrault and Sharon Stone in her film debut.
