Horace Ové, CBE (born 1939), is a British filmmaker, photographer, painter and writer, one of the leading black independent film-makers to emerge in Britain since the post-war period. Ové holds the ''Guinness World Record'' for being the first Black British film-maker to direct a feature-length film, ''Pressure'' (1975).〔Josanne Leonard, ("An Interview with Horace Ove – Film-Maker 7/09/08. The Boy from Belmont" ), 22 March 2009. From ''Trinidad and Tobago Review'', October 2007.〕〔("The British Connection – Great films from the Queen's Jubilee years" ), FilmClub.〕 In its retrospective history, ''100 Years of Cinema'', the British Film Institute (BFI) declared: "Horace Ové is undoubtedly a pioneer in Black British history and his work provides a perspective on the Black experience in Britain." Ové has built a prolific and sometimes controversial career as a filmmaker, documenting racism and the Black Power movement in Britain over many decades through photography and in films such as ''Baldwin's Nigger'' (1968), ''Pressure'' and ''Dream to Change the World'' (2003). His documentaries such as ''Reggae'' (1971)〔(''Reggae'' at IMDb. )〕 and ''Skateboard Kings'' (1978) have also become models for emerging filmmakers. The actress Indra Ové is his daughter. ==Early years== Born in 1939 in Belmont, Trinidad, where he grew up, Horace Ové came to Britain in 1960 to study painting, photography and interior design. His entry into the film world was working as a film extra on the set of the 1963 Joseph L. Mankiewicz epic ''Cleopatra'' after its production moved to Rome.〔("Horace Ove CBE" ), The British Blacklist.〕 On returning to London, Ové went to study at the London School of Film Technique. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Horace Ové」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
