Michigan last summer for a
private showing. 'As a direc-
tor, I always painted the
scenes. When I make a film, I
paint a storyboard of small
scenes for the person operat-
ing the camera."
A role in the 1982 feature
film Remembrance of Love,
starring Kirk Douglas, gave
him enough money to open
his private studio in Jaffa.
Wild, a film made with his
second wife, writer-teacher
Nili Dolan-Gal, won first
prize in the 2001 Alternative
Film Festival in Picciano,
Italy.
Yoram Gal: "Individualistic."
"I've written more than 60
plays," Gal says. "Out of
those, more than 20 are for
children. Most of my plays are original, but I have done adaptations. I have one
adapted play, The Miser by Moliere, that's been running for 10 years in Israel. I start-
ed appearing in it when I was 42. Two other actors take on four different roles each.
I can't do it this summer because I'm going back and forth to festivals with my
paintings."
