Question: Do both films, The Ten Commandments (1923 Film) and The Return Of Swamp Thing, have the directors who are from the same country?

Wynorski has been making B-movies and exploitation movies since the early 1980s, and has directed over 150 feature films. His earliest films were released to movie theaters, but his later works have predominantly been released to cable or the straight- to- video market. Jim Wynorski( born August 14, 1950 in Glen Cove, Long Island, New York) is an American screenwriter, director, and producer. He often works under pseudonyms such as" Jay Andrews, Arch Stanton, H.R. Blueberry, Tom Popatopolis," and" Noble Henry." His movies often spoof horror films:" Cleavagefield", for example, parodies" Cloverfield The Bare Wench Project" parodies" The Blair Witch Project", and" Para- Knockers Activity" parodies" Paranormal Activity". A character in the film" The Final Destination" is named after him. In 2009, the documentary" Popatopolis", directed by Clay Westervelt and named for one of Wynorski's pseudonyms, chronicled Wynorski during the making of his soft- core horror film," The Witches of Breastwick". The film serves as a partial biography, with clips from many of his previous films and includes interviews with Wynorski, his contemporaries, cast, and crew. In 2016, he directed" Nessie& Me", marking the first time that he directed a children's film. The character Jack O’ Grady directly references Wynorski's earlier films" Dinocroc vs. Supergator" and" Piranhaconda" when he encounters Nessie at the start of the film, hinting that" Nessie& Me" is canon to those film series, as well as" Monster Cruise", with many characters from it appearing in" Nessie& Me" as well. <SEP> Swamp Thing is a 1982 American Technicolor superhero film written and directed by Wes Craven, based on the Vertigo/ DC Comics character of the same name created by Len Wein and Bernie Wrightson. It tells the story of scientist Alec Holland( Ray Wise) who becomes transformed into the monster the Swamp Thing( Dick Durock) through laboratory sabotage orchestrated by the evil Anton Arcane( Louis Jourdan). Later, he helps a woman named Alice Cable( Adrienne Barbeau) and battles the man responsible for it all, the ruthless Arcane. It was followed by a sequel," The Return of Swamp Thing", in 1989. <SEP> Written by Jeanie MacPherson, the film is divided into two parts: a prologue recreating the biblical story of the Exodus and a modern story concerning two brothers and their respective views of the Ten Commandments. Lauded for its" immense and stupendous" scenes, use of Technicolor process 2, and parting of the Red Sea sequence, the expensive film proved to be a box- office hit upon release. It is the first in DeMille's biblical trilogy, followed by" The King of Kings"( 1927) and" The Sign of the Cross"( 1932). " The Ten Commandments" is one of many works from 1923 that entered the public domain in the United States in 2019. The Ten Commandments is a 1923 American silent religious epic film produced and directed by Cecil B. DeMille. <SEP> The Return of Swamp Thing is a 1989 American superhero film based on the Vertigo/DC Comics character of the same name. Directed by Jim Wynorski, it is a sequel to the 1982 film "Swamp Thing", having a lighter tone than its predecessor. The film has a main title montage that consists of comic book covers set to Creedence Clearwater Revival's "Born on the Bayou", and features Dick Durock and Louis Jourdan reprising their roles as the Swamp Thing and Anton Arcane, respectively, along with Sarah Douglas and Heather Locklear. <SEP> Richard Durock (January 18, 1937 – September 17, 2009) was an American actor and stuntman who appeared in over eighty films and over seven hundred television episodes. He was perhaps best known for playing Swamp Thing in both the feature films "Swamp Thing" and "The Return of Swamp Thing" and the . <SEP> Between 1914 and 1958, he made a total of 70 features, both silent and sound films. He is acknowledged as a founding father of the American cinema and the most commercially successful producer- director in film history. His films were distinguished by their epic scale and by his cinematic showmanship. His silent films were more diverse in genre, among which included social dramas, comedies, Westerns, farces, morality plays, and historical pageants. De Mille began his career as a stage actor in 1900. He later moved to writing and directing stage productions, some with Jesse Lasky, who was then a vaudeville producer. DeMille's first film," The Squaw Man"( 1914), was also the first feature film shot in Hollywood. Cecil Blount DeMille( August 12, 1881 – January 21, 1959) was an American filmmaker. Its interracial love story made it commercially successful and it first publicized Hollywood as the home of the U.S. film industry. The continued success of his productions led to the founding of Paramount Pictures with Lasky and Adolph Zukor. His first biblical epic," The Ten Commandments"( 1923), was both a critical and commercial success; it held the Paramount revenue record for twenty- five years. De Mille directed" The King of Kings"( 1927), a biography of Jesus, which gained approval for its sensitivity and reached more than 800 million viewers. " The Sign of the Cross"( 1932) is said to be the first sound film to integrate all aspects of cinematic technique. " Cleopatra"( 1934) was his first film to be nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture. After more than thirty years in film production, DeMille reached a pinnacle in his career with" Samson and Delilah"( 1949), a biblical epic which became the highest- grossing film of 1950. Along with biblical and historical narratives, he also directed films oriented toward" neo-naturalism", which tried to portray the laws of man fighting the forces of nature. He received his first nomination for the Academy Award for Best Director for his circus drama" The Greatest Show on Earth"( 1952), which won both the Academy Award for Best Picture and the Golden Globe Award for Best Motion Picture – Drama. His last and best known film," The Ten Commandments"( 1956), also a Best Picture Academy Award nominee, is currently the eighth- highest- grossing film of all time, adjusted for inflation. In addition to his Best Picture Awards, he received an Academy Honorary Award for his film contributions, the Palme d' Or( posthumously) for" Union Pacific"( 1939), a DGA Award for Lifetime Achievement, and the Irving G. Thalberg Memorial Award. He was the first recipient of the Golden Globe Cecil B. DeMille Award, which was named in his honor. DeMille's reputation as a filmmaker has grown over time and his work has influenced many other films and directors.
