    Early Experience

    My childhood was spent in Egypt and Cyprus. Since then, he has lived in Britain, Sweden, Mexico and the United States, and finally settled in Victoria, Canada. Cosmatus is a linguistic genius, speaks 6 languages, and loves to collect books and smoke cigars.

    Performing Experience

    In 1960, Cosmatus served as an assistant in the poetic epic film " Exodus: Gods and Kings " directed by the famous director Otto the Ogre , and started his career as a director. His other works include " cobra " and " Leviathan " and so on.
    In 1985, " First Blood " filmed by Cosmatus , let the audience remember Sylvester Stallone's role as the American Vietnam War veteran " Rumble "Image. The film was a huge success. Although some people criticized the film for being too bloody and violent, Cosmatus believed: "It is a release of people’s inner emotions, because we can watch while eating popcorn. The'hero' in the film fights blood alone."
    Another masterpiece of Cosmatus is " Tombstone " in 1993 . At that time, the producer replaced the original director Kevin Yar midway from the set and was replaced by Cosmatus, which caused some complaints from the crew. But the success of the film proves that Cosmatus is indeed an excellent director.

      The depth of human nature in the face of death

      On the first day of September, I watched an old movie "Cassandra Bridge", and I was really amazed! There are no stunts, no big scenes, and the descriptions of various characters in the dull train journey arouse deep thinking and inner thinking!

      a movie still alive

      At first, I just remembered that this film has a nine-minute long shot and wanted to taste it, but it seems that I remembered it wrongly, and I still couldn't see the film.

What is more interesting should be the political metaphor, which is worth savoring.

The last sentence, "He just left, the woman is gone, I will send someone to watch" is chilling. In addition, the terrorists in this film can also be Europeans (Swedes), and the terrorist settings in subsequent European and American commercial films are basically...
