Tevfik Fikret Uçak

The legend, according to Mockbusters.tv

Decades before Hollywood invented the idea of heroes sharing a screen, Tevfik Fikret Uçak had already thrown them onto a beach together in 3 Dev Adam, driven by a storytelling instinct running years ahead of both his era and his budget. Holder of an honorary doctorate in fixing during post whatever physics vetoed on set, his shot compositions fuel dissertations too intimidating to publish. His storyboards are napkins. They work anyway. Scholars call this impossible; he simply called it Tuesday.

A portrait from the Mockbusters.tv satirical universe: humorous praise, not a factual biography.
