Early life and education

edit

Danny Boyle was born on 20 October 1956,[1]inRadcliffe,Lancashire,England,about 6 mi (9.7 km) north ofManchester's city centre, to Irish parents Frank and Annie Boyle, both fromCounty Galway.He has a twin sister, Marie, and a younger sister, Bernadette, both of whom are teachers.[2][3]

Although he now describes himself as a "spiritual atheist,"[4]he was brought up in a working-class Catholic family. Boyle was analtar boyfor eight years and his mother had the priesthood in mind for him, but at the age of 14 he was persuaded by a priest not to transfer to aseminary.[5]

Whether he was saving me from the priesthood or the priesthood from me, I don't know. But quite soon after, I started doing drama. And there's a real connection, I think. All these directors –Martin Scorsese,John Woo,M. Night Shyamalan– they were all meant to be priests. There's something very theatrical about it. It's basically the same job – poncing around, telling people what to think.[6][7]

Boyle attendedThornleigh Salesian College,a Catholic boys'direct grant grammar schoolinBolton,[8]and studied English and drama at the University College of North Wales (nowBangor University), where he directed several productions for the student drama society.[2][9]

The show was filmed in London.[27]

Film

edit

Boyle's love for film began with his first viewing ofApocalypse Now:

It had eviscerated my brain, completely. I was an impressionable twenty-one-year-old guy from the sticks. My brain had not been fed and watered with great culture, you know, as art is meant to do. It had been sandblasted by the power of cinema. And that's why cinema, despite everything we try to do, it remains a young man's medium, really, in terms of audience.[28]

1990s:Shallow GraveandTrainspotting

edit

The first film Boyle directed wasShallow Grave.[10]The film was the most commercially successful British film of 1995,[29]won theBAFTA Award for Best British Film,and led to the production ofTrainspotting.[30]Working with writerJohn Hodgeand producerAndrew Macdonald,Shallow Graveearned Boyle the Best Newcomer Award from the 1996 London Film Critics Circle.[29]Critics credited these films with revitalising British cinema in the early '90s.[10]TheBFIrankedTrainspottingthe10th greatest British film of the 20th century.[31]

Boyle declined an offer to direct thefourth filmof theAlienfranchise to makeA Life Less Ordinary.[32][33]

2000s:The Beach,28 Days LaterandSlumdog Millionaire

edit

Boyle's next project was afilm adaptationof the cult novelThe BeachbyAlex Garland.Filmed inThailandwithLeonardo DiCaprio,casting of the film led to a feud withEwan McGregor.[10]He then collaborated with Garland on the post-apocalyptic horror film28 Days Later.[34]

Boyle at the2008 Toronto International Film Festival

He also directed a short filmAlien Love Triangle(starringKenneth Branagh), which was intended to be one of three shorts within a feature film. However the project was cancelled after the two other shorts were made into feature films:MimicstarringMira SorvinoandImpostorstarringGary Sinise.[35]In 2004 Boyle directedMillions,[6]scripted byFrank Cottrell Boyce.[36]His next collaboration with Alex Garland[6]was the 2007 science-fiction filmSunshine,featuring28 Days LaterstarCillian Murphy.[37]

In 2008 he directedSlumdog Millionaire,the story of an impoverished child (Dev Patel) on the streets ofMumbai,India, who competes on the localversion ofWho Wants to Be a Millionaire?,for which Boyle won Academy and BAFTA Awards for Best Director. The most successful British film of the decade, the film won eightAcademy Awardsand sevenBAFTA Awards.[38][39]Boyle commented, "To be a film-maker...you have to lead. You have to be psychotic in your desire to do something. People always like the easy route. You have to push very hard to get something unusual, something different."[10]Andrew Macdonald, producer ofTrainspotting,said "Boyle takes a subject that you've often seen portrayed realistically, in a politically correct way, whether it's junkies or slum orphans, and he has managed to make it realistic but also incredibly uplifting and joyful."[10]The success led a deal with Fox Searchlight.[40]

Despite the commercial success ofSlumdog Millionaire,Boyle also faced great criticism for his portrayal of India through a Western, idealized lens. Some critics saw the film as "poverty porn," though Boyle argued he showed India's "lust for life" and "resilience."[41]

Boyle told an interviewer about the eclectic range of his films, "There's a theme running through all of them—and I just realised this. They're all about someone facing impossible odds and overcoming them."[47]With a strong interest in music, Boyle has mentioned in interviews that he has considered amusical filmwith original compositions. Boyle has also expressed interest in an animated film.[48]

The BFI's London Film Festival Director, Clare Stewart, said Boyle had created an exhilarating and audacious film about a complex, charismatic pioneer.[49]He then directed the sequel toTrainspotting,T2 Trainspotting.[50]

In a BBC interview, Boyle stated that he didn't write his own films but they did reflect his personality. "I am not a big auteur fan and like to work with writers, but ultimately a film is a director's vision, because he gets all its elements together towards that vision."[51]
