Book Presentation:
Woody Allen (USA, b. 1935) has been a major comic director since the 1970s. Writer, director and actor, his self-portrayal as a neurotic, intellectual, sex-obsessed, Jewish New Yorker seeking comfort in psychoanalysis brought him immense popular success and acknowledged status as a writer (Manhattan, 1979; Deconstructing Harry, 1997). In the 2000s he left New York to work in Europe, winning over a new audience with fresh inspiration and young actors, including Scarlett Johansson in Match Point (2005) and Vicky Cristina Barcelona (2008).
Press Reviews:
'modern directors are briefly and brilliantly profiled in sharp prose and smart pictures in these movie master-classes for film buffs and beginners.'
Saga
'short, beautifully illustrated essays on great directors'
The Times
'exceptional value .. lively and accessible … indispensable'
Obessed with Film.com
'bargain price. Does an already saturated market need yet more auteur guides? On this evidence, yes. … briskly paced, scalpel-sharp primers …The collective quality is high, the tone scholarly but not intimidating. … A triumph of layout as much as content, each book glows with gorgeous on- and off-screen archive photography… Magnifique.'
