William Oliver Stone (born September 15, 1946) is an American film director, screenwriter, and producer. Stone came to public prominence between the mid-1980s and the early 1990s for writing and directing a series of films about the Vietnam War, in which he had participated as an infantry soldier. Many of Stone's films primarily focus on controversial American political issues during the late 20th century, and as such that they were considered dangerous at the times of their releases. Stone's films often combine different camera and film formats within a single scene as evidenced in ''JFK'', ''Natural Born Killers'', and ''Nixon''. Stone has received three Academy Awards for his work on the films ''Midnight Express'', ''Platoon'', and ''Born on the Fourth of July''. He was presented with the Extraordinary Contribution to Filmmaking Award at the 2007 Austin Film Festival.
==Early life== Stone was born in New York City, the son of Jacqueline (née Goddet) and Louis Stone (born Louis Silverstein), a stockbroker.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Oliver Stone Biography (1946-) )〕 He grew up in Manhattan and Stamford, Connecticut. His parents met during World War II when his father was fighting as a part of the allied troops in France. His father was non-practicing Jewish, and his French-born mother was a non-practicing Roman Catholic.〔"Télématin" (France 2), September 28, 2010.〕 Stone was raised in the Episcopal Church,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The religion of director Oliver Stone )〕 and now practices Buddhism. Stone attended Trinity School in New York City before his parents sent him away to The Hill School, a college-preparatory school in Pottstown, Pennsylvania. His parents were divorced abruptly while he was away at school (1962) and this, because he was an only child, marked him deeply. Stone's mother was often absent and his father made a big impact on his life; father-son relationships were to feature heavily in Stone's films. He often spent parts of his summer vacations with his maternal grandparents in France, both in Paris and La Ferté-sous-Jouarre in Seine-et-Marne. Stone also worked at 17 in the Paris mercantile exchange in sugar and cocoa — a job that proved inspirational to Stone for his film ''Wall Street''. He speaks French fluently. Stone graduated from The Hill School in 1964. Stone was admitted into Yale University, but left after a year to teach high school students at the Free Pacific Institute in South Vietnam. Stone taught for six months, after which he worked as a wiper on a United States Merchant Marine ship, traveling to Oregon. He returned to Yale, where he dropped out a second time (in part due to working on an autobiographical novel ''A Child's Night Dream'', published 1997 by St. Martin's Press).
