Paul Morrison (born 1944) is a British film director and screenwriter. He has mainly directed documentaries and drama films. His movie Solomon and Gaenor (1999) was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film.[1]

The film was shot mainly in Barcelona[2] and is a Factotum Barcelona, Aria Films, APT Films and Met Film production.[1] The potentially controversial interpretation was written by British screenwriter Philippa Goslett.
