The Director's Vision

Résumé du livre

This book "explores how 250 of the world's most brilliant film directors - from the originals of classic Hollywood to today's mavericks and eccentrics - exploit the cinematic arts to convey their visions and obsessions. Each entry is illustrated by a single stunning film still that exemplifies that director's genius, and this simple format builds into one of the most fascinating, visually arresting, and insightful of all film books. Never have the images of cinema and with words written about it been so expertly tied together, and the result is an entertaining and genuinely enlightening work of film reference." -- book cover.
