About This Item

New York: William Morrow and Company. Fine in Near Fine dj. 1981. First Edition. Hardcover. [book is in perfect condition, completely unblemished; jacket a teensy bit rubbed on the front panel, but still looks practically new]. One of our finest film critics analyzes the state of filmmaking (both as art and industry) as of the early 1980s. "But this is not just a book of film criticism. It has a special feeling for such diverse but related topics as the community of Los Angeles, the playground lobbies of movie theaters, the turbulent personalities of Paulilne Kael and Jerry Lewis, the dangerous originality of young director James Toback [wonder how long it took him to get over that particular infatuation?], and the chilling implications of THE SHINING. [The book] is a portrait of the furious mixture of seriousness and fantasy, achievement and hype, at work in American film." .
