David Lane's personal experience.

1942, david lean got the opportunity to cooperate with Noel Coward. Together, they directed the war movie We Serve, which was a great success and contributed to the most important leap in Lynn's film career-becoming a director. With the encouragement and help of Noel Coward, Ryan, producer Anthony Havelock-Allen and photographer ronald neame * * * set up a film production company-Film Guild. The scripts of the first three films produced by the company were all written by Noel Coward: Happy Variety (1944), Blithe Spirit (1945) and Me Late (1946). Among them, Meet Me Late won the International Film Award at the first Cannes Film Festival. In this film, lean uses infectious music and lighting methods, which can better create an atmosphere. He did not pursue romantic self-expression, but took the theme seriously, thus forming Lynn's unique film style, which laid the foundation for his epic film.

The next two films, Great Expectations | Tears of a Lone Star (1946) and Oliver Twist | Oliver Twist (1948), were based on the novels of Charles Dickens, so Lean began to cooperate with the legendary British actor alec guinness for a long time. After eight years' efforts, Cineguild went out of business due to an unpleasant dispute between Lynn and ronald neame. Lynn made the last two films for the company: Enthusiastic Friends (1948) and Madeleine (1950), although impressionism was tried in the films. Enthusiastic Friends is adapted from the works of British science fiction writer Herbert George ·H·g· Wells, while Madeleine tells the story of a Victorian murderer.

David lean independently filmed 1952' s The Sound Barrier, which was a great success in Britain, and then successively filmed "Hobson's Choice" adapted from the theater comedy. 1954) and Summer Madness (1955), a collaboration with katharine hepburn, Britain and the United States, both won good box offices, and Hobson's Choice won the Golden Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival with 1954. From 1952 to 1956, Lean has been filming for Alexander Kodak, and Kodak often has various restrictions on Lean's scripts. 1956 After Kodak's death in June, Lynn began to discuss with American producer Sam Spiegel and prepare the film bridge on the river kwai. The film was adapted from the novel of the same name by French novelist Pierre Boulle by playwrights Michael wilson and Carl Foreman blacklisted by Hollywood, and was shot under extremely difficult conditions. After the release of 1957, it caused a sensation in the international film industry, won seven Oscar awards including best film and best director, and also opened the prelude to the "Lynn style" epic.

From then on, Lean and Spielberg began to conceive an ambitious film-Lawrence of Arabia (1962). This film is Le An's first collaboration with playwright Robert Bolt, photographer Freddie Young and composer maurice jarre. It lasted for 20 months and was filmed in Jordan desert, Spain and Morocco. Lawrence of Arabia not only became Lynn's most outstanding masterpiece, but also created a new style of epic film. After bridge on the river kwai, it won seven Oscars again, including best picture and best director. However, the cooperation between Lean and Spielberg did not continue. His next film, Doctor Zhiwaji (1965), which was co-produced with Italian producer Carlo Ponti, was adapted from the novel of the same name by Nobel Prize in Literature winner Boris Pasternak. The script was completed by Robert Bolt, which made a big box office and won five Oscars. Compared with the first two films, there are two less awards, because the best film and the best director of that year were awarded to the musical "The Sound of Music". Ryan and Robert Bolt collaborated again to complete the film Ryan's Daughter (1970), which lasted for one year in Ireland. Although the film won two Oscars, it received a mediocre response from critics and even the public remained silent. Compared with the first two blockbusters, Ryan's Daughter has not been recognized by most people, which makes Le 'an very sad. He has never made a feature film for 14 again. His film and television work only produced a documentary for New Zealand TV: The Story of an Anchor (1978).

At the age of 73, Lynn collaborated with British producers John Brabourne and Richard Goodwin to adapt E.M. Foster's novel A Passage to India. This novel worried Lynn for more than 20 years, so he especially enjoyed the preparation and filming of this film. Lean not only adapted the script independently, but also personally served as the editor of the film. A Passage to India (1984) was a great success as soon as it was released, and it became the most powerful contender for the Oscar that year, winning 1 1 nominations and finally winning two awards. In the last few years of his life, Ryan has been adapting and filming the script, which was adapted into the adventure novel Nostoromo-A Story by the Sea by Polish novelist Joseph Conrad. In addition, he also participated in the filming of richard harris's Lawrence of Arabia. 1990, American Film Academy awarded david lean a lifetime achievement award in his later years. 199 1 warm spring has just arrived in Britain, but the long-term torture of cancer has made the elderly dying. Ryan died just before Nostromo started. David lean has been married six times and has had an affair with many women. Every relationship is passionate at first, but when Lean is ready to find new objects that can arouse his enthusiasm, he will let them leave his life forever. * Isabel Lane (1930–1936) (David's cousin)–a son Peter Kay Walsh (1940–1949) * ann todd (1949–/).
