Alfonso Cuaron's thirty years of directorial experience are interestingly varied. Like most filmmakers, Cuaron kicked off his filmography with a small independent feature. In his case, it was the 1991 movie
Solo con to Pareja. Afterward, though, that's where Cuaron just goes delightfully all over the map. Cuaron proceeded to do not one but two fantasy kids movies, plus a grim apocalyptic drama, a visual-effects heavy 3D spectacle and, most recently, an intimate portrait of his own upbringing in Mexico City. Much like Steven Soderbergh or Billy Wilder, Cuaron's love for the medium of film is reflected in how he refuses to stick to just one genre. Cuaron wants to do anything and everything in an effort to explore all the possibilities this medium has to offer.
