Summary: "Death in the movies isn't supposed to be real. But on July 23, 1982, a spectacular explosion on the set of TWILIGHT ZONE: THE MOVIE knocked a helicopter out of the sky and into the path of two small children and veteran actor Vic Morrow, crushing one child and decapitating Morrow and the other youngster. How could this tragedy occur? Was anyone to blame? OUTRAGEOUS CONDUCT reveals the facts behind the accident, when skilled movie-makers exceeded the bounds of safety; the anxiety, when Hollywood closed ranks to protect its own; and the raucous and very public trial, when countercharges of "outrageous conduct" flew between the publicity-conscious district attorney and the furious film director, John Landis."

Summary: "Steven Spielberg (1947 - ) made his first film at the age of 12, and by age 27 his second film for the commercial cinema, JAWS, was breaking all existing box-office records. In the decade since then, his reputation as an inventive filmmaker with an unerring gift for knowing what will attract the paying customer has gone from strength to strength. Spielberg's technical assurance and gift for creating dazzling special effects are matched by his ability to interpret stories with the kind of pace and style that brooks no resistance. He has with some justification been called 'a magician in the age of the movies', yet despite his phenomenal success as a commercial filmmaker (no less than four of his films are among the top fifteen top money-making films of all time), he has been conspicuous by his absence in the lists of Academy Award winners. Is he, as some critics claim, merely the 'General Motors of kids movies', or will the next decade see him make a successful move into directing films with adult themes?" [Book blurb]
