He may not do box-office numbers like Steven Spielberg, but he speaks real words. By Gabriel Alvarez David Cronenberg: Well, I suppose you have to define success.

Halfway through filming, we were suddenly not only hot, we were radioactively hot because a Russian in London named Alexander Litvinenko was poisoned by a radioactive isotope called polonium. And some of that happened just literally half a block from my front door when I was living in London making the movie. So suddenly Russians living in exile in London, and the criminal activity around them became huge news.

He currently lives in Toronto where he writes independently. filmography bibliography articles in Senses web resources Keeping his Body of Work in Mind: A Chronology of David Cronenberg's Success as Canadian Auteur and Industry Pillar After graduating from North Toronto Collegiate Institute an Ontario Scholar, David Cronenberg enrolled in the University of Toronto's Faculty of Science, attempting to answer the question not of what things do, but of how they work. Raised by academics, David was quick to objectify the dualism that exists in both science and literature between self-identification with animals and those who identify themselves as human beings, a delicate balance between the entities of the mind and the body. His conclusions appear to riddle his sensibilities: a Canadian Cartesian whose learnedness worked in conjunction with his timing of breaking into the Canadian industry to elevate his status as one of Canada's most prominent filmmakers, a pillar to the foundation and revision of Canadian film policy, and an example of Canadian subtext reveling in international arenas. Realizing that the CFDC's mandate actually threatened the ability to generate revenue from a distinctly Canadian cinematic culture, Trudeau's Liberals bilaterally ramified continental legislation as a means of widening viewing audiences, saturating the United States market with palpable feature films, a Canadian cinema.

Dressed in casual cool as is the director's habit, Mr. Cronenberg is supremely confident; not given to displays of false modesty nor overly interested in compliments, his speech is pleasant and carefully modulateda sort of intellectual detachment that has marked even his earliest, "tax shelter" work. Gracious in the extreme and unfailingly polite, it seemed clear to me that Mr. Cronenberg was not generally accustomed to talking of his earlier work on the junket circuitspeaking only for myself, it was a wonderful break from the usual stump.- Walter Chaw Shivers (1975) - **1/2 (out of four) Set in a swank, state-of-the-art high-rise, David Cronenberg's first film is rife with brilliant images and ideas about the essential nature of man, but suffers from a leering quality that feels more exploitive than illuminating. Even so, the story of sexually-transmitted parasites turning a community of yuppies into sexual zombies does have its charms, particularly in a swimming pool climax that proves, in hindsight, a wonderfully rich metaphor for fertility and change that will inform the auteur's work all the way through to the present day.

March 15, 1943 in Toronto , Ontario Click here B orn in Toronto, March 15, 1943, David Cronenberg wasn't your average kid. For example, while most youngsters would be outside playing, David would spend hours watching with rapt attention exactly how a praying mantis devoured a meal. While his parents were, by all accounts normal, they didn't exactly have common, everyday jobs. David's father was a newspaper stamp columnist for the Toronto Telegram and freelance writer and his mother a professional pianist, and he grew up surrounded by books and art. His early interests were fiction and science, and he never saw them as being incompatible. In fact, he went on to study science at the University of Toronto. There he developed an interesting balance between the two. For example, although he felt that no one could really be taught how to write, he also thought that a person would need to be taught science if they wanted to write about science. It was at the U. of T. that David's somewhat insular world expanded when he started to hang out with art students. He would eventually drop science in favor of English. From there it was a relatively short leap, at least for him, into filmmaking.
