 Youssef Chahine, Egypt's greatest cinematic director, is gravely ill. I illustrated him full of pride in the quality of his work, in spite of the anguish of pain that grips him. He is an exemplary hero. I wish him the very best and hope and trust that he will pull through. He is a man of multiple talents and deserves the very best. parent page (26 June - 2 July 2008, issue #903) |
