"...I had a telephone conversation with my good friend director Guillermo del Toro, and I told him they had sent me these books, but I didn't know....And he said, 'Are you crazy; have you read them?' I told him I hadn't, and he said, 'Don't be stupid; read them immediately.'"

Alfonso Cuarón Orozco (b. 28 November, 1961 in Mexico City, Mexico) is a Mexican film director. He directed the third Harry Potter film in the successful Harry Potter series, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. Prior to directing the series, he had not read any of the books within the series and did not consider the idea of doing a "big special effects film" to be on his radar.
Cuarón made a great many changes to the Harry Potter film series, all of which were met with either great acclaim or stiff opposition by Harry Potter fans. Many caused serious continuity errors in relation to the previous two films, which were directed by Chris Columbus. These include Cuarón's changing the appearance and layout of Hogwarts Castle, by adding the Clock Tower, the Central tower and changing the location of Hagrid's Hut. He also changed the appearance of Filius Flitwick and the appearance of all wands in the films. Most of these changes were accepted by the two future directors.
When he was first signed on, he asked Emma Watson, Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint to write a short essay on their characters. True to their characters, Emma turned in a 16 page essay, Daniel a one-page essay, and Rupert never turned his in.
Alfonso Cuarón grew up in Mexico City and went on to study both filmmaking and philosophy at the National Autonomous University of Mexico. After graduating, Cuarón began working in television in Mexico, first as a technician and then as a director. Cuarón's television work led to assignments as an assistant director for several Latin American film productions (including Gaby: A True Story and Romero), and in 1991, he landed his first big-screen directorial assignment.
•Alfonso declined the offer to direct Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire because he would not finish working on the third film in time to begin the fourth.
•Contrary to popular belief, the man seated in the Three Broomsticks Inn holding two lit candles is not Cuarón. It is in fact illusionist Paul Kieve, a real life magician who was responsible for many of the magical effects in the film.
