Luc Besson is celebrating his 66th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed directors of his generation.
Popular director-screenwriter-producer Luc Besson (The Fifth Element, Léon: The Professional, The Big Blue, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 66th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.
Besson, a cultural icon
Born in Paris on March 18, 1959, Luc Besson's career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in French history. Besson'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 Luc hasn't done.
And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Luc Besson as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 66.
Happy Birthday, Luc, you're the best!
