Let's make this birthday one to remember.

93 years old (Born on April 26, 1931)

Happy Birthday, Paul Almond! From crafting thought-provoking screenplays to penning captivating novels, you've always known how to stir the pot—especially with your unforgettable films like "The Act of the Heart" and "Journey." Controversial? Perhaps. Brilliantly memorable? Absolutely!

Here's hoping this year brings you as much excitement (but maybe fewer raised eyebrows) than those groundbreaking cinematic moments. May your creativity continue flowing freely—and may critics forever debate passionately over coffee about what exactly it all meant.

Cheers to another chapter filled with success, laughter, and just enough controversy to keep things interesting! Happy birthday—you timeless storyteller extraordinaire!
