"This third installment of The Directors, a companion to the Silver Plaque-winning Starz/Encore documentary series, offers in-depth interviews with ten of Hollywood's most acclaimed film directors. Offering a unique glimpse at the craft of directing, as well as reminiscences of on-the-set pranks, these savvy Hollywood figures provide rich detail on the making of a wide and colorful variety of films, including Nashville, A Nightmare on Elm Street, Rain Man, Raging Bull, Pee-wee's Big Adventure, and Schindler's List." "Readers will learn how directors first reacted to scripts that became film classics, how famous scenes were staged and shot, how underdog actors landed the roles that made them superstars, and much, much more."--BOOK JACKET |
