In any area of human life, there are people whose contribution to the development of a particular business is extremely difficult to overestimate. Such a person for the world of cinema is Luke Besson - an outstanding contemporary director who will reach the next anniversary in his life just tomorrow. This outstanding personality certainly will not leave anyone indifferent to his work, on the basis of which more than one generation of youth has grown.
general information
The birthday of the future filmmaker is March 18, 1959. He was born in Paris. His parents were professional divers and therefore it is not surprising that the guy from a young age was very drawn to the sea. Luke's early years passed on the territory of Yugoslavia and Greece. It was there that in his youth he decided to devote himself to marine biology and became interested in underwater photography. However, fate wished that he eventually abandoned his plans, which was the fault of an accident at the age of seventeen, when he had an accident and could no longer dive for health reasons.
Homecoming
Once again in Paris, Besson concluded for himself that he can do nothing in life as well as take pictures. And so he decided that he would make a movie. Thanks to his friend’s brother, the hero of the article gets on the set, where over time he becomes an assistant director, and at the age of 19 he even goes to work in Hollywood. However, after a while he returns home and is in the ranks of the French army for three years.

Carier start
The cinematic debut for Luke is a short film called "The Last but One", and already in 1984 he shot the full meter "The Last Battle", which was shot on a black and white tape. In this film, Besson first directed Jean Reno, and the picture itself received two dozen national awards and gained fame outside France.
Climbing to the top
In 1985, the director consolidated his success with another masterpiece, to which he gave the name "Underground". In this film, the Besonovskaya explosive mixture of melodramatism and intense action, which remains also beloved by the audience today, was already clearly traced.
And three years later, an essentially autobiographical film was released on the screens, dedicated to Luke’s childhood unfulfilled dream, The Blue Abyss. In this work, the Frenchman managed to delicately form a balance between the external and internal world of a person, show the real friendship of two divers, and also skillfully presented the romance of the underwater depths, which was submitted to Besson himself in real life. This work was appreciated by critics and received several nominations for Cesar.

The real “gold mine” for Besson was his fantastic film “The Fifth Element”, in the filming of which Mila Jovovich and the Hollywood star Bruce Willis were involved. The painting gave its creators 266 million box office worldwide.
