director of the month: January 2003


 
Jay Roach
Director

What Has He Done?
Roach directed all three Austin Powers movies as well as Meet the Parents.

Why Did I Choose Him?
Often times, when a director is placed in a position with demanding, above-the-title actors and actresses, the film suffers and end up sucking because the director's vision is lost in the mix. From the four films that I've seen, Roach has managed to maintain control of his films to support his vision. As a result, they've become rather humorous films, worthy of repeat viewings.

What's Next?
The Meet the Parents sequel, Meet the Fockers.
