Who is Rusty Lemorande?
Rusty Lemorande is an American screenwriter, director, actor and film producer, who created the 1989 version of Journey to the Center of the Earth.
One of Lemorande's first major jobs was production executive for the comedy Caddyshack. He was caught in the battle between screenwriter Doug Kenney and executive producer Jon Peters over Peters' insistence on a prominent role in the finished film for the infamous gopher puppet, which was not part of the original script.
Lemorande soon joined up with Barbra Streisand to produce Yentl, for which they shared a Golden Globe award for Best Motion Picture, Musical or Comedy.
Lemorande wrote the film Electric Dreams, then followed it up by co-writing and producing with Francis Ford Coppola and George Lucas the Disney 3D theme-park film Captain EO, starring Michael Jackson.
Lemorande had a small speaking part in the film Yentl, and recently played the role of "Father Lazarus" in the Roland Joffe film, There Be Dragons based on the life of Josemaria Escriva which was shot largely in Argentina.
