Let's make this birthday one to remember.

60 years old (Born on May 06, 1965)

Happy Birthday, Stephen Gaghan! May your day be filled with more twists and turns than the plot of "Traffic," but hopefully fewer tense moments. Your Oscar-winning screenplay taught us that life is complex—much like trying to blow out birthday candles without setting off smoke alarms.

From crafting gripping narratives to directing compelling films, you've shown Hollywood how storytelling should truly unfold. Here's hoping this year brings you even greater success—and perhaps another shiny statue for your shelf (because Oscars get lonely too). Cheers to many more years of cinematic brilliance and witty dialogue that's as timeless as ever!
