Pondicherry-born M Night Shyamalan has established himself as a master of suspense in a ridiculously short space of time. After Haley Joel Osment saw dead people in The Sixth Sense (1998) and Bruce Willis proved Unbreakable (2000), the writer/director attracted some criticism for his 2002 aliens-have-landed sci-fi/chiller Signs. Now he's twisting again with The Village, a period thriller about fear itself. His next movie looks set to be an adaptation of the award-winning novel Life Of Pi.

Despite his making amateur movies from the age of 10, M Night Shyamalan was being groomed for a medical career by his cardiologist father and obstetrician mother. When it came time for college, the Indian-born, Philadelphia-bred aspiring Spielberg opted to attend NYU's film school rather than Penn's premed program. While his parents may have suffered some consternation, it all worked out in the end, particularly by 1999 when Shyamalan had written and directed one of the year's biggest and most surprising hits, the supernatural thriller "The Sixth Sense".
