Popular director-screenwriter Jean-Pierre Jeunet (Amélie, Alien Resurrection, Delicatessen, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 71st birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Jeunet, a cultural icon

Born in Roanne on September 3, 1953, Jean-Pierre Jeunet's career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in French history. Jeunet's not just a great director, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Jean-Pierre hasn't done.
