Audrey Hepburn by F.X. Feeney

$8.00 NZD

Category: Film | Reading Level: good

Her beauty has proved timeless - should we be surprised? Equally graceful whether moving or standing still, blessed with a balletic poise, luminous dark eyes, and an exquisite profile a queen might envy, Audrey Hepburn would no doubt have become famous in her youth even of the movies hadn't found her - simply because no self-respecting camera could resist her. What sets her iconic beauty apart now, for us, more than a decade after she's quit the stage of this life, is that her physicality is oddly secondary. Her extraordinary good looks merely halo a still-living smile. "The Hollywood Icon" series: People talk about Hollywood glamour, about studios that had more stars than there are in heaven, about actors who weren't actors but were icons. Other people talk about these things, Taschen shows you. "Hollywood Icons" is a series of photo books that feature the most famous movie icons in the history of cinema. These 192-page books are visual biographies of the stars. ...Show more

A Call to Action - The Films of Ousmane Sembene by Sheila Petty (Editor)

$14.00 NZD

Category: Film | Series: Cinema Voices Ser. | Reading Level: very good

Senegalese director Ousmane Sembene has often been referred to as a pioneer of the sub-Saharan African cinema. From Borom Sarret (1963) to Guelwaar (1992), Sembene has developed a political and aesthetic project that has deeply influenced the evolution of African filmmaking. This project, with its goal to create a new Africa free of the remnants of colonialist oppression, has subsequently become the objective of emerging generations of African filmmakers. In this book seven scholars explore Sembene's notion of a new Africa by examining the central issues of change, cultural alienation and economic dependence that infuse the director's cinematic and literary works.

The Conversations : Walter Murch and the Art of Editing Film by Michael Ondaatje

$16.00 NZD

Category: Film | Reading Level: good

Combining the insights and experiences of a renowned novelist and a master filmmaker, this book is full of fascinating stories as well as an insider's look at how films are made. During the filming of his celebrated novel The English Patient, Michael Ondaatje became increasingly fascinated as he watched the veteran editor Walter Murch at work. The Conversations, which grew out of discussions between the two men, is about the craft of filmmaking and deals with every aspect of film, from the first stage of script writing to the final stage of the sound mix. Walter Murch emerged during the 1960s at the centre of a renaissance of American filmmakers which included the directors Francis Ford Coppola, George Lucas and Fred Zinneman. He worked on a whole raft of great movies, including the three Godfather films, Julia, American Graffiti, Apocalypse Now, The Unbearable Lightness of Being and many others. Articulate, intellectual, humorous and passionate about his craft and its devices, Murch brings his vast experience and penetrating insights to bear as he explains how films are made, how they work, how they can go wrong and how they can be saved. First published 2002. About the Author : Michael Ondaatje is the author of several prose works including In the Skin of a Lion, Running in the Family, Coming Through Slaughter, The English Patient - for which he won the Booker Prize in 1992 - and most recently, Anil's Ghost. His collection of poetry Handwriting was published in 1998. He lives in Toronto. ...Show more
