Anthony David Leighton Scott was born 21 June 1944 in England, younger brother to Ridley, and like him graduated from the Royal College of Art in London before both made their names directing television commercials. His theatrical debut came with The Hunger in 1983, but Top Gun in 1986 locked the template: high-gloss action, restless cameras, operatic momentum. Through the next two decades he rarely slowed - Beverly Hills Cop II, Days of Thunder, The Last Boy Scout, True Romance, Crimson Tide, Enemy of the State, Man on Fire, Déjà Vu, The Taking of Pelham 123, Unstoppable - each one a machine built to move. In 1995 he and Ridley shared the BAFTA for Outstanding British Contribution to Cinema; in 2010 they took the Britannia Award for Worldwide Contribution to Filmed Entertainment. He died 19 August 2012.
