producer, and editor. <P4-S1> He won Academy Awards for Best Director and Best Picture for both "West Side Story" (1961) and "The Sound of Music" (1965). <P4-S2> He was also nominated for Best Film

Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences from 1984 through 1987. <P4-S6> Robert Wise has been viewed as a craftsman, inclined to let the (sometimes studio-assigned) story concept set the style. <P4-S7> Later "cineastes", such as Martin Scorsese, insist that despite Wise's legendary workaday concentration on stylistic perfection within the confines of genre and budget, his choice of subject matter and approach still functioned to identify Wise as an artist and not merely an artisan. <P4-S8> Wise achieved critical success as a director in a striking variety of film genres: horror, noir, western, war, science fiction, musical and drama, with many repeat successes within each genre. <P4-S9> Wise's meticulous preparation may have been largely motivated by studio budget constraints, but advanced the moviemaking art. <P4-S10> Robert Wise received the AFI Life Achievement Award in 1998. <SEP> <P5-S0> Mallrats is a 1995 American romantic buddy comedy film written and directed by Kevin

Askewniverse after 1994's "Clerks", although, chronologically, "Mallrats" takes place a day before. <P5-S2> As in the other Askewniverse films, the characters Jay and Silent Bob feature prominently, and characters and events from other films are discussed. <P5-S3> Several cast members, including Jason Lee, Ben Affleck and Joey Lauren Adams, have gone on to work in several other Smith films. <P5-S4> Comic-book icon Stan Lee appeared, as did Brian O'Halloran, the star of Smith's breakout feature "Clerks". <P5-S5> Despite failing at the box office and receiving a lukewarm critical reception, "Mallrats" has since become a cult classic. <P5-S6> Plans for a sequel, "MallBrats", were announced in March 2015. <P5-S7> In June 2016, Smith announced that the sequel would instead be a 10-episode TV series; in February 2017, Smith announced that he had not been able to sell the TV series to any network, and the sequel was shelved indefinitely.
