The Profile

Mike Newell is a British film director known for a wide range of genres, from the romantic comedy Four Weddings and a Funeral to the crime drama Donnie Brasco and the fantasy blockbuster Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

British film director and producer active since the 1960s; recognized for work across crime, romance, and fantasy, including Donnie Brasco and Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

Reviews praise Donnie Brasco for its performances and grounded portrait of low-level crime. Harry Potter e il Calice di Fuoco is criticized for pacing, tone, and musical continuity. L'Amore Ai Tempi Del Colera draws fire for language choices, casting, and a picturesque approach to Márquez’s prose. Overall sentiment is divided but engaged, with one playful anecdote from set life.

Notable Quotes

❝ Mike Newell is a director of romantic-dramatic films. How could one even conceive the idea of dragging him into the Potter world?
❝ These are all the elements that make Donnie Brasco a magnificent portrait of Italo/American crime and that contribute to making it one of the major gangster movies of the nineties.
❝ TO BE SENT TO THE STAKE, THOSE WHO CHARGE YOU 7 EUROS FOR THIS RUBBISH!
