Born Alfonso Cuaron Orozco on November 28, 1961 in Mexico City, Cuaron was part of a middle-class family as his father Alfredo was a nuclear physicist who worked for the United Nations. Less than five years later, Alfonso gained a younger brother in Carlos who would become a key collaborator as well as a filmmaker in his own right. The two would watch movies at an early age as they would accidentally discover art films such as Vittorio de Sica’s Bicycle Thieves late one night that would be a key moment in their education through cinema. During the early 1980 s when Cuaron was a student studying philosophy and filmmaking at the National Autonomous University of Mexico, the Mexican film scene was emerging into its darkest period. http: //thevoid 99. blogspot. com/2012/05/auteurs-11 -alfonsocuaron. html (thevoid 99)
