Let's make this birthday one to remember.

77 years old (Born on January 30, 1948)

Happy Birthday, Nick Broomfield! May your day be as intriguing and unpredictable as one of your documentaries. From chasing down rock legends in "Kurt & Courtney" to capturing raw humanity in "Soldier Girls," you've always known how to keep us glued—and slightly nervous—about what you'll uncover next.

Here's hoping this year brings you fewer reluctant interviewees running away from the camera, more fascinating stories unfolding effortlessly before you, and plenty of cake breaks between takes. Keep shining a spotlight on life's quirkiest corners; after all these years behind the lens, you're still our favorite cinematic detective. Cheers!
