Word count: ~45 words. This is far below the 180-260 requirement.
Problem: The provided sources are extremely sparse. To reach 180-260 words without inventing facts is impossible if I strictly follow "Do not invent roles, dates, awards, relationships or personal details."
Re-evaluating the sources:
[1] TMDB: Director, Writer, Known for My Brother Marvin (2012), Omnibus (1967), The Tripods (1984). 24 credits. Born Nov 6, 1945 in Hendon, Middlesex, England, UK.

[3] TMDB: Same as [2].
[4] AllMovie: Mentions bio/credits/filmography exist.
Constraint Conflict: The user wants 180-260 words, but the source material only provides about 40-50 words worth of unique facts. If I write 180 words, I must invent something or repeat myself excessively.
Strategy: I will expand the prose by being descriptive about the facts provided (e.
