Question: Do director of film The Invisible Children and director of film The Best Years of Our Lives have the same nationality?

The film is about three United States servicemen re-adjusting to civilian life after coming home from World War II. Samuel Goldwyn was inspired to produce a film about veterans after reading an August 7, 1944, article in" Time" about the difficulties experienced by men returning to civilian life. Goldwyn hired former war correspondent MacKinlay Kantor to write a screenplay. His work was first published as a novella," Glory for Me", which Kantor wrote in blank verse. Robert E. Sherwood then adapted the novella as a screenplay. " The Best Years of Our Lives" won seven Academy Awards: Best Picture, Best Director( William Wyler), Best Actor( Fredric March), Best Supporting Actor( Harold Russell), Best Film Editing( Daniel Mandell), Best Adapted Screenplay( Robert E. Sherwood), and Best Original Score( Hugo Friedhofer). In addition to its critical success, the film quickly became a great commercial success upon release.

Wyler received his first Oscar nomination for directing "Dodsworth" in 1936, starring Walter Huston, Ruth Chatterton and Mary Astor, "sparking a 20-year run of almost unbroken greatness." Film historian Ian Freer calls Wyler a "bona fide perfectionist", whose penchant for retakes and an attempt to hone every last nuance, "became the stuff of legend.

Through his talent for staging, editing, and camera movement, he turned dynamic theatrical spaces into cinematic ones. He helped propel a number of actors to stardom, finding and directing Audrey Hepburn in her Hollywood debut film, "Roman Holiday" (1953), and directing Barbra Streisand in her debut film, "Funny Girl" (1968). Both of these performances won Academy Awards. He directed Olivia de Havilland to her second Oscar in "The Heiress" (1949) and Laurence Olivier in "Wuthering Heights" (1939), for his first Oscar nomination. Olivier credited Wyler with teaching him how to act for the screen. And Bette Davis, who received three Oscar nominations under his direction and won her second Oscar in "Jezebel" (1938), said Wyler made her a "far, far better actress" than she had ever been.
