Question: Which film has the director who is older, Road To Perdition or Ooh... Diese Ferien?

Ooh ... diese Ferien is a 1958 Austrian film directed by Franz Antel. <SEP> John Pritchett( born March 29, 1947) is an American sound engineer for film. He has been nominated for two Academy Awards in the category Best Sound for the films" Road to Perdition" and" Memoirs of a Geisha". He was nominated for two Cinema Audio Society Awards, winning best sound on" The Road to Perdition". He was also nominated for a BAFTA Award for his work on" There Will Be Blood". He has worked on over 100 films and television series since 1981, and is known for his work on such films as" Dirty Dancing, Magnolia, There Will Be Blood" and" The Amazing Spider Man." <SEP> The screenplay was adapted by David Self from the graphic novel of the same name written by Max Allan Collins and illustrated by Richard Piers Rayner. The film stars Tom Hanks, Paul Newman, Jude Law, and Daniel Craig. The plot takes place in 1931, during the Great Depression, following a mob enforcer and his son as they seek vengeance against a mobster who murdered the rest of their family. Filming took place in the Chicago area. Mendes, having recently finished 1999's acclaimed" American Beauty", pursued a story that had minimal dialogue and conveyed emotion in the imagery. Cinematographer Conrad L. Hall took advantage of the environment to create symbolism for the film, for which he won several awards, including a posthumous Academy Award for Best Cinematography. Road to Perdition is a 2002 American crime film directed by Sam Mendes. The film explores several themes, including the consequence of violence and father- son relationships. The film was released on July 12, 2002, and eventually grossed over$ 180 million worldwide. The cinematography, setting, and the lead performances by Hanks and Newman were well received by critics. It was released on home media on February 25, 2003. <SEP> Born in Vienna, Antel worked mainly as a film producer in the interwar years. After World War II, he began writing and directing films on a large scale. In the late 1940s, 1950s and 1960s these were mainly comedies( romantic, slapstick, and/ or musical) and" K.u.k. films" all of which, for Austrian and German TV stations alike, have been a staple of weekend afternoon programming ever since. In between there is quite a sober film about the Oberst( Colonel) Redl affair that shook the Austro- Hungarian Monarchy on the eve of World War I. Antel himself later commented on this period," I always wanted to provide good entertainment for the people at the cinema. After the screening, people should say: Well now, I am in a good mood, I will go out and have a glass of wine." ( German original:" Ich wollte die Leute im Kino immer gut unterhalten. Die Besucher sollten nach der Filmvorführung sagen: So, jetzt bin ich gut aufgelegt, jetzt geh ich auf ein Viertel Wein.") From the late 1960s, encouraged by the new opportunities in the film industry brought about by the sexual revolution, Antel gradually switched his main interest to soft porn and ribaldry. It was in particular his series of" Frau Wirtinhostess") films, directed under the pseudonym François Legrand, with which he tried to win international recognition. Titles included" The Sweet Sins of Sexy Susan"( 1967)," Sexy Susan Sins Again"( 1968)," Wild, Willing& Sexy"( 1969) and" Do n't Tell Daddy"( aka" Naughty Nymphs" in the U.S.A.)( 1972). Antel would recount an anecdote about himself describing how, in order to live up to his reputation as a womanizer, he used to carry a pair of high heels in his luggage which he then would occasionally place in the corridor in front of his hotel room – especially when he was travelling alone. Among the best known actors Antel had worked with from the 1940s to the 1970s were Hans Moser, Paul Hörbiger, Oskar Werner, Curd Jürgens, Tony Curtis, Herbert Fux, Heinrich Schweiger, Arthur Kennedy, Carroll Baker, Edwige Fenech, George Hilton, Marisa Berenson, Britt Ekland, Andréa Ferréol. 1981 was a turning point in Antel's career when he adapted for the big screen a stage play by Ulrich Becher and Peter Preses. Set from the days of the Anschluss of 1938 until after the end of the war," Der Bockerer" is about a Viennese butcher named Karl Bockerer( Karl Merkatz) whose common sense rather than intellect tells him to oppose the Nazis and who dares to show resistance just because he is never fully aware of the possible fateful consequences of his actions. While Bockerer and his wife survive the war unscathed, their son joins the SA but, after some internal intrigue, is sent to the front and killed. The film was entered into the 12th Moscow International Film Festival. The film's strong anti-fascist message, the moving dialogue, and performances by the" crème de la crème" of Austrian actors and actresses( Ida Krottendorf, Alfred Böhm, Heinz Marecek, Hans Holt, Dolores Schmidinger and many more) made" Der Bockerer" an unusually successful film and gave new impetus to Antel's career. Franz Antel( 28 June 1913 – 11 August 2007) was a veteran Austrian filmmaker. He made three sequels, which follow the lives of the Bockerers well into the 1960s, each depicting a crucial historical event in Austria or one of its neighbouring countries: <SEP> Max Allan Collins( born March 3, 1948) is an American mystery writer. His work has been published in several formats and his" Road to Perdition" series was the basis for a film of the same name. He wrote the" Dick Tracy" newspaper strip for many years and has produced numerous novels featuring the character as well. <SEP> He also is known for dark re-inventions of the stage musicals" Cabaret"( 1994)," Oliver!"( 1994)," Company"( 1995), and" Gypsy"( 2003). He directed an original West End stage musical for the first time with" Charlie and the Chocolate Factory"( 2013). Sir Samuel Alexander Mendes( born 1 August 1965) is an English film and stage director, producer and screenwriter, best known for his directoral debut film" American Beauty"( 1999), which earned him the Academy Award and Golden Globe Award for Best Director, the crime film" Road to Perdition"( 2002) the James Bond films" Skyfall"( 2012) and" Spectre"( 2015), and the war film" 1917"( 2019). For directing the play" The Ferryman", Mendes was awarded the Tony Award for Best Direction of a Play in 2019. In 2000 Mendes was appointed a Commander of the Order of the British Empire by Queen Elizabeth II for" services to drama" and in the same year was awarded the Shakespeare Prize by the Alfred Toepfer Foundation in Hamburg, Germany. In 2005, he received a lifetime achievement award from the Directors Guild of Great Britain. In 2008" The Daily Telegraph" ranked him number 15 in their list of the" 100 most powerful people in British culture".
