Biography

Hossein Amini was born in Iran and moved with his family to England at the age of 11. His first screenplay was for the 1994 TV movie The Dying of the Light, directed by Peter Kosminsky. The film depicted the murder of Sean Devereux, an aid worker killed in Somalia in 1993 for opposing arms sales, and was nominated for Best Single Drama at the British Academy Television Awards. In 1995, producer Andrew Eaton commissioned Amini to adapt Thomas Hardy's 1895 novel Jude the Obscure, which was directed by Michael Winterbottom and released as Jude in 1996. He also wrote the screenplay for the 1996 TV movie Deep Secrets. Amini adapted Henry James's 1902 novel The Wings of the Dove into a film directed by Iain Softley, released in 1997 to critical acclaim. For this work, he received an Academy Award nomination for Best Writing - Adapted Screenplay. In September 2013, Amini gave a screenwriting lecture as part of the BAFTA and BFI Screenwriters' Lecture Series.
