Let's make this birthday one to remember.

79 years old (Born on August 14, 1945)

Happy Birthday, Wim! Another year older and still framing life beautifully—your films continue to inspire us all. From the poetic landscapes of "Paris, Texas" to your recent triumph with "Perfect Days," you've shown that storytelling only gets richer with age.

May your birthday be filled with as much joy as a perfectly composed shot and laughter brighter than any cinematic lighting. Keep capturing life's quirky moments; after all, nobody does existential road trips quite like you do! Here's wishing you another fantastic year ahead—full of creativity, success, and perhaps fewer lost suitcases on set. Cheers to you!
