Aluísio Leite height - How tall is Aluísio Leite?

Aluísio Leite was born and raised in a small town in the massive State of São Paulo, Brazil. At the age of 9, he started reading movie reviews and getting seriously interested in Cinema. He would devour film magazines and hang out at the (only) video store in town, talking to the clerks for hours, and renting movies whenever his mother (or any other generous relative) would give him some spare change. There wasn't a single movie theater in his hometown, which meant it was hell on Earth. At 13, he saw Paul Thomas Anderson's "Magnolia," and that's when he had no doubt he wanted to become a screenwriter/filmmaker. At 18, Aluísio got his green card, dropped out of his senior year in high school, and moved to Burlington, Vermont. There, he could go to the local arthouse theater as often as he wanted, and after getting his GED and enrolling into Burlington College, he further developed his Film education. Two weeks after graduation in 2012, Aluísio drove all the way from Vermont to Hollywood in his ancient Honda Accord, and never looked back.

Friends with Dustin Lance Black. They met in April 2010 when Black gave a speech at the University of Vermont, which was filmed by Aluísio. Aluísio did his senior internship (proofreading screenplays), long distance, with Black, while attending Burlington College (Burlington, VT) as a Cinema Studies/Screenwriting Major with a minor in Film Production.

Brazilian-American. Born in Registro and raised in Miracatu, State of São Paulo (Brazil), Aluísio moved to Burlington, Vermont at the age of 18 in 2006. He became an American citizen in 2011.

Favorite film is Paul Thomas Anderson's "Magnolia" (1999).
