Many experts say that Billy Wilder changed the history of American movies. He is often called the

best movie maker Hollywood has ever had. He was known for making movies that offered sharp social comment. Wilder was one of the first directors to do this.

Billy Wilder was born in 1906 in the former Austro-Hungarian Empire. Billy Wilder started law school in Vienna, Austria. However, he began reporting for a Vienna newspaper after graduation. By the 1920s,

he was writing movies in Germany. However, the Nazis had risen to power in the nation. Wider was Jewish, and he recognized that he had no future in Nazi Germany. In 1933, he went to Paris. There he directed

a movie for the first time. It was called “The Bad Seed”. Then he received word that producers in the

United States had accepted one of his scripts. Billy Wilder left Europe for America.

In America he formed a writing team with Charles Brackett. The two writers created many f ilms together. Wilder and Brackett wrote several successful movies. One was the nineteen thirty-nine movie, “Ninotchka”, starring Greta Garbo. Ernst Lubitsch directed the film. Wilder always praised this man

as a friend and teacher whose humor and expert direction greatly influenced his works.

In 1954, Billy Wilder became an independent producer. The nest year, Wilder’s first movie as an independent filmmaker was a huge success. It was “The Seven Year Itch”. In 1959, Wilder made a funny

movie that was very popular. I.A.L. Diamond joined Wilder in writing “Some Like It Hot”．By the 1980s, Wilder no longer was considered the most unusual, creative movie-maker in Hollywood.

In recent years, however, Billy Wilder received many more awards and honors. Critics praised his gifts

to movie making. In 1987, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences gave him the Irving G. Thalberg ※推荐下载※
