Mike Newell is a director who's dabbled in many genres over the years. Although he's worked steadily in both television and film since the mid- sixties, Newell jumped over to the A list with the smash hit, Four Weddings and a Funeral, which introduced the world to Hugh Grant. Since then he's directed a string of mostly successful American films, including Donnie Brasco, Pushing Tin, and Mona Lisa Smile. In 2005, he directed his largest scale film to date, Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire- and now turns his attention to another book to film adaptation, Gabriel García Márquez's classic Love in the Time of Cholera.
