Alfonso Cuarón

[frabjabulous]

Just saw Y Tu Mama Tambien, and it was terrific. Very funny, touching, meloncholy... I think Cuaron did a great job with it. A few too many sex scenes for my taste, but hey, I'm a Virgo so it's okay for me to be prudish. :) I'm not sure how much creative control Cuaron had on the movie, though... was there a separate director of photography? Did he have major involvement in writing the script? Casting? Because all of these things were very well done. Hopefully, with PoA, he'll be able to have a lot of input in these areas.

As for Great Expectations, well, if you've read the book and watched the movie, you're aware of how majorly the movie changed characters, events, themes, etc. If Prisoner of Azkaban is this altered, we'll end up with Cho Chang as the main character and Sirius Black completely deleted! Of course, Great Expectations doesn't have quite the fanbase of Harry Potter, so if Cuaron values his life, he won't change any intrinsic elements. And if he does, well, a simple bomb can be built using only a bucket of gasoline and items found around your home... :) just kidding, of course.
