Allan Moyle is a widely recognized Canadian film director, born in 1947. He gained prominence for his directorial endeavors in the films Pump Up the Volume (1990) and Empire Records (1995). Moyle's first significant movie venture was Times Square (1980), although he had a dispute with the film's producer over divergent creative views. In the pursuit of creativity, he authored a novel in the eighties that was never published, however, it formed the foundation for his screenplay of Pump Up the Volume. In the years that followed, his directorial chronicle expanded with The Gun in Betty Lou's Handbag (1992), Empire Records (1995), New Waterford Girl (1999) - for which he was awarded the Best Direction Canadian Comedy Award in 2001, XChange (2000), and the made-for-TV movies Jailbait (2000) and Man in the Mirror: The Michael Jackson Story (2004). His innovative film, Weirdsville, made its first appearance and headlined the 2007 Slamdance Film Festival in January. Not just limited to directing, Moyle has also tried his hand at acting and screenwriting.
