Couple Profile
He started his career as a DJ in 1984 at the top-rated Mexican radio station WFM. In 1988 he began composing music for six Mexican feature films, including Garra de tigre (1989). He studied filmmaking in Maine and Los Angeles, under Polish film director Ludwik Margules and studied directing under Judith Weston in Los Angeles. In the nineties he was in charge of the production of Televisa, a Mexican TV company. By the time he was 27 he had become one of their youngest directors. In 1991, after Televisa, he set up the company Zeta Films to produce advertising, short films and television programs. It was at this time that he also started writing and shooting TV commercials. His first half-length feature, Detrás del dinero, was produced in 1995 for Televisa and starred Spanish actor/singer Miguel Bosé.
Screenwriter Guillermo Arriaga after 3 years and 36 drafts, ended up with three stories into the feature length film, Amores perros (2000) starring Gael García Bernal. This gritty look at the underbelly of Mexican life garnered an Academy Award nomination for Best Foreign Language Film as well as a BAFTA Film Award for "Best Film not in the English Language," the Critics Week Grand Prize and Young Critics Award at the 2000 Cannes Film Festival as well as many other awards from festivals and societies around the world. González Iñárritu made the fifth short ("Powder Keg") in the BMW The Hire series and directed the Mexico segment of the independent feature 11`09`01 - September 11 (2002), a collective movie about the influence of 9-11 on the world, along with Claude Lelouch, Shohei Imamura, Ken Loach, Mira Nair, Amos Gitai and Sean Penn. His most recent project, Babel, consisted of four stories set in Morocco, Mexico, the United States, and Japan, in four different time frames. It was released in November 2006 and stars Brad Pitt, Adriana Barraza, Rinko Kikuchi, Cate Blanchett, Gael García Bernal, and Koji Yakusho. He earned the Best Director Prize (Prix de la mise en scène) at the 2006 Cannes Film Festival. Babel would also go on to win the Best Motion Picture in the drama category at the Golden Globe Awards on January 15, 2007.
