M. Night Shyamalan Biography

Manoj Nelliyattu Shyamalan (born 6 August 1970), known professionally as M. Night Shyamalan, is an Indian American filmmaker and screenwriter who resides and works primarily in the United States, known for making movies with contemporary supernatural plots that usually climax with a twist ending. He is also known for filming his movies (and staging his plots) in and around Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where he was raised. Shyamalan released his first film, Praying with Anger, in 1992 while he was a student. His second movie, the major feature film Wide Awake, made in 1996 but not released until three years later, failed to find financial success. His newest film is planned to be released in 2010.

Shyamalan gained international recognition when he wrote and directed 1999’s The , which was a commercial success and nominated for six Academy Awards including Best Picture, Best Director and Best Original Screenplay. He followed The Sixth Sense by writing and directing Unbreakable, released in 2000, which received mixed reviews. His 2002 film Signs, where he also played Ray Reddy, gained both critical and financial success, but The Village (2004) was a critical disappointment whose box office fell hard after a strong opening weekend, and 2006) performed even worse. His latest film, The Happening (2008), did financially better than his previous effort but was also panned by critics.
