Film talk : directors at work
"What 1970s Hollywood filmmaker influenced Quentin Tarantino? How have the films of Steven Spielberg inspired Takashi Shimizu, director of the huge box office hit The Grudge? How does one document the Rolling Stones and the Beatles at the peaks of their careers? What is it like to be an African American director in the twenty-first century? The answers to these questions, along with many more little-known facts and insights, can be found in Film Talk, an in-depth, behind-the-scenes look at filmmaking from the 1940s to the present. In eleven intimate and revealing interviews, contemporary film directors speak frankly about their work. Illustrated with more than fifty rare photographs, this is essential reading for aspiring moviemakers, film scholars, and everyone interested in how movies are made and the fascinating individuals who make them." -- rear cover
