Biography
John Curran (New York), after studying at university in Syracuse, worked as an illustrator and designer in New York. In 1986 he moved to Sydney, where he worked for the renowned advertising agency Ogilvy and Mather. In 1990 he founded the Pod Film company and began directing commercials, music videos, and short films (award-winning Down Rusty Down among them). Curran's feature film debut, Praise (1998), won the FIPRESCI award at the Toronto festival and was listed by the New York Times as one of the ten best movies of the year. This September sees the premiere of his latest film The Painted Veil, an adaptation of the novel of the same name by W. Somerset Maugham, starring Naomi Watts and Edward Norton.
