This Doesn't Happen In The Movies Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle

Why would a man with no problems and five million dollars in the bank disappear? I should have run when Amanda Ghering walked into my detective agency looking like a femme fatale from a film noir. But I didn't. Instead, I took the job-and my first real case-tracking down her husband Peter, who disappeared without a trace three weeks ago. As beautiful and wealthy as she is dark and dangerous, Amanda's convinced he's been murdered. Who could have wanted him dead? Before long, it's clear there's more to this case than meets the eye. As Amanda's story keeps changing, someone is out there who'll do anything to stop me from finding out what happened to Peter. And time is running out for both of us. "I was halfway through the first chapter when I did something I rarely do - I laughed out loud. From that point on, I was hooked."

Plays, Movies, and Critics Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle

This exceptional collection explores the mutual concerns of dramatic theater, film, and those who comment on them. Plays, Movies, and Critics opens with an original play by Don DeLillo. In the form of an interview, DeLillo's short play works as a kind of paradigm of the theatrical or cinematic event and serves as a keynote for the volume. DeLillo's interview play is accompanied in this collection by interviews with theater director Roberta Levitow, Martin Scorsese, and film/theater critic Stanley Kauffmann. Other contributions include a critical look at the current American theater scene, analyses of the place of politics in the careers of G. B. Shaw and Luigi Pirandello, a compelling reading of Chekhov's "The Seagull", a detailed inquiry into the obsessions that energize the works of Sam Shepard, provocative reinterpretations of the films Mean Streets and The Sheltering Sky, and a translation of André Bazin's important piece on theology and film. Originally published as a special issue of South Atlantic Quarterly (Spring 1992), this book has been expanded to include a new introduction by the editor and an afterword by Jonathan Kalb. Contributors. André Bazin, Robert Brustein, Bert Cardullo, Anthony DeCurtis, Don DeLillo, Jesse Ward Engdhal, Richard Gilman, Jim Hosney, Mame Hunt, Jonathan Kalb, Stanley Kauffmann, Jody McAuliffe, Mary Ann Frese Witt, Jacquelyn Wollman, David Wyatt

Martin Scorsese Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle

Martin Scorsese (b. 1942) has long been considered one of America's greatest cinematic storytellers. Over the last fifty years he has created some of the most iconic moments in American film, never afraid to confront controversial issues with passion. While few of his films are directly autobiographical, his upbringing in New York's Little Italy, the childhood asthma that kept him from playing sports, and his early desire to enter the priesthood all helped form his sensibilities and later shaped his distinct style. Community, religion, violence--these themes drive a Scorsese picture, and whether he examines the violence that bursts forth in the hand of Travis Bickle or the passion of Jesus Christ, Scorsese's mastery of the history, art, and craft of filmmaking is undeniable. This collection was originally edited by the late Peter Brunette in 1999 and is now revised and extensively updated by Robert Ribera. It traces Scorsese's evolution from the earliest days of the New American Cinema, his work with Roger Corman, and his days at New York University's film program to his efforts to preserve the legacy of cinema, his documentary work, and his recent string of successes. Among new movies discussed are The Departed, Hugo, and The Wolf of Wall Street, and the documentaries No Direction Home and The Blues. Scorsese stands out as a director, producer, scholar, preservationist, and icon. His work both behind the camera and in the service of its history are a cornerstone of American and world cinemas. In these interviews, Scorsese takes us from Elizabeth Street to the heights of Hollywood and all the journeys in between.

Making Movies Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle

Why does a director choose a particular script? What must they do in order to keep actors fresh and truthful through take after take of a single scene? How do you stage a shootout—involving more than one hundred extras and three colliding taxis—in the heart of New York’s diamond district? What does it take to keep the studio honchos happy? From the first rehearsal to the final screening, Making Movies is a master’s take, delivered with clarity, candor, and a wealth of anecdote. For in this book, Sidney Lumet, one of our most consistently acclaimed directors, gives us both a professional memoir and a definitive guide to the art, craft, and business of the motion picture. Drawing on forty years of experience on movies that range from Long Day’s Journey into Night to Network and The Verdict—and with such stars as Katharine Hepburn, Paul Newman, Marlon Brando, and Al Pacino—Lumet explains how painstaking labor and inspired split-second decisions can result in two hours of screen magic.

Are You a Walk-In? Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle

17% of Earth’s Population — 1 Out of Every 6 People — Are Now Walk-Ins. There is a phenomena happening now that is confusing many people. Some people think they’re crazy when they’re not. Some people think other people are crazy when they’re not. The phenomena is the walk-in experience, and this book will help you to understand if it’s happening to you or it will help you to understand if it’s happening to others that you know or perhaps even love. Are You a Walk-In? Isis: In these tumultuous times or just busy life for you all, there’s a form of birth going on that might surprise some of you, and that form of birth includes (just slightly before it) a very safe, calm, and (frequently) completely pain-free form of death. This form of birth is spirit replacement. This is not something forced on you. It is something that you have chosen on the soul level while guided by your teachers, angels, and Creator. Reveals the Mysteries: The information in this book is meant to act as a support system with suggested mechanisms on how to achieve goals, purposes, and other adaptations. This information is meant to help you to live a fulfilled life and, perhaps, to be able to express the traits and abilities that you have brought in to not only enjoy this new expression but to help others as well.
