	Obituary: George Roy Hill
		George Roy Hill, the hugely versatile and Academy-award winning director who has died a week after his eightieth birthday, did not arrive in Hollywood until he was 40.
		Hill was born in Minnesota in 1921 and, after studying at Yale and Trinity College, Dublin, he served as a pilot with the US Marine Corps in the Second World War.
		Hill was clearly happiest in the recent past of Butch Cassidy's turn-of-the-century West, the 1920s of Thoroughly Modern Millie, or the 1930s Chicago of The Sting, where people didn't take themselves too seriously.

		As late as 1976, George Roy Hill was the first and only director to have two films on the all-time top ten box office hits: Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and The Sting (both starring Robert Redford and Paul Newman).
		A filmmaker with a diverse background in music, drama and television, Hill proved to be a popular storyteller in a variety of genres.
		Hill felt that all of his major characters "create an environment, a fantasy, an illusion, and then go on to make it happen." It continues by tracing the thematic characteristics that are consistent with Hill’s depiction of protagonists who create their own environments and then attempt to inhabit them.
