About Tony Scott: Anthony David was an English film director and producer.
We think of enterprise architecture as the process we use for fully describing and mapping business functionality and business requirements and relating them to information systems requirements.
Dad never understood why Ridley wanted to go to art school, and then I came along six years later and wanted to do the same thing.

Ridley and I talk every day. Our family is very close because we're from North England.
Mum was the matriarch and the patriarch of the family.
I'm always dictated to be what I want to do, and I have a love affair with every movie I've done, and some of them have turned out good, and some of them have turned out not so good. But regardless, the making of them, or that love affair, has always...
