 Flipped
Rob Reiner has directed some of the most popular and influential motion pictures of the past two decades, deftly moving among many styles. The versatile filmmaker has been involved in the entertainment business for much of his life, first as an actor then as a director and producer. He entered into the public eye as an emmy-winning actor on the long-running hit television series "All in the Family," but soon transitioned into a director with the acclaimed "rockumentary" comedy This is Spinal Tap in 1984. He followed with the road comedy The Sure Thing and the adaptation of Stephen King's youth adventure Stand By Me. The latter film brought him his first nomination as Best Director from the Directors Guild of America. The Princess Bride, adapted by William Goldman from his book, followed in 1986 and has since become a beloved classic. Reiner's succession of box office hits include When Harry Met Sally...,Misery, A Few Good Men, The American President and his soon to be released film, Flipped.
