Allan Moyle is a Canadian-born film director.
His first major film wasTimes Square (1980). During the editing of the film he clashed with producer Robert Stigwood who reportedly wanted dialogue scenes removed and replaced with more musical sequences, so that the accompanying soundtrack recording coudl be expanded to a double-album. Moyle refused to make the cuts so Stigwood fired him and made the cuts himself.
Moyle has since directed Pump Up the Volume (1990), The Gun in Betty Lou's Handbag (1992), Empire Records (1995), New Waterford Girl (1999) - for which he won the Best Direction Canadian Comedy Award in 2001, and the made-for-TV movies Jailbait (2000) and Man in the Mirror: The Michael Jackson Story (2004).
