Denis Villeneuve
Filmmaker
When French-Canadian filmmaker Villeneuve made his breakthrough — 2010’s film, “Incendies,” which was nominated for a foreign-language Oscar — the world took notice.
“‘Incendies’ was the first film where I was finally able to make cinema the way I had always dreamt of,” he says, “That is when I was truly born as a filmmaker.”
His latest, “Dune,” bowed in Venice and screens at the Toronto festival. It his theaters Oct. 22.
Villeneuve earned a reputation for his keen attention to detail and unique approach towards cinematography, which often relies on a thematic color palette, intentional use of light and a voyeuristic style, owed largely to his collaborations with the legendary Dp Roger Deakins. “Working with Roger on three movies has been the most intense and profound film school ever.
“How blessed I was to have the privilege to work with so many great artists in front and behind the camera.
