Biography
Having made its first weapons in publicity, it is by selling its scenario The Truman Show that it carries out its first feature film Bienvenue in Gattaca , film of science fiction to the elegant esthetism and a not very common control. It carries out S1m0ne in 2002, astonishing comedy where the character of Al Pacino, producer of cinema in difficulty, invents of any part a numerical actress (that everyone believes real) whose career escapes to him. Its film Lord off War (2005) treating sale of weapons, it is in Europe that Niccol will manage to find the funds for this film of a virulence and a cynicism specimens.
