Leos Carax is celebrating his 64th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed directors of his generation.

Popular director Leos Carax (Holy Motors, Pola X, The Lovers on the Bridge, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 64th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Carax, a cultural icon

Born Alex Christophe Dupont in Suresnes on November 22, 1960, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in French history. Carax'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 Leos hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Leos Carax as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 64.

Happy Birthday, Leos, you're the best!
