《末代皇帝》制片人約翰·達利去世
Producer John Daly, whose films garnered 13 best-movie Oscars over 40 years, died of cancer Friday in Los Angeles at age 71. In the late '60s, Daly teamed with actor David Hemmings to form the Hemdale Group, which initially managed several rock bands that became part of the so-called British Invasion, including Yes and Black Sabbath. In 1971, Daly bought out Hemmings's interest in the company and moved it into films and stage productions. Within a few years it had become the leading independent film studio in Britain, turning out more than 100 films. He is the only independent film producer who ever won back-to-back best-picture Oscars, when Platoon won in 1986, followed by The Last Emperor in 1987.
在40年中拿到13次奧斯卡最佳影片獎的制片人約翰·達利周五因癌癥在洛杉磯逝世,享年71歲。在60年代末,達利和演員大衛(wèi)·海明斯成立了搖滾音樂經(jīng)濟公司Hemdale,這家公司門下有很多支樂隊,成為當然被稱為“英倫入侵”的一部分,包括Yes和Black Sabbath。
1971年,達利買下了海明斯在公司的股份并轉(zhuǎn)做電影和舞臺作品。短短幾年就成為英國獨立電影公司的領(lǐng)袖,制作了一百多部電影。他是唯一一個曾連續(xù)兩屆拿下奧斯卡最佳影片的獨立電影制片人。這兩部電影是1986年的《野戰(zhàn)排》和1987年的《末代皇帝》。
