He shows John Ford to be a very successful director, from 1917, the period of silent movies, to 1966, a time when movies had become an important means of entertainment. He shows John Ford as a cantankerous, wily and brave man, who had a big influence on American cinema, and American social history, as a person who opposed McCarthyism, and who was wounded in the Second World War making documentary and propaganda films [Taken from the cover of the book]Notes: Also published : New York : Dial Press, 1979; Includes index; Filmography: p.229- 291ISBN: 0047910380

Spiegel : the man behind the pictures / Andrew Sinclair London: Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 1987.
Call No: 81SPI SINAuthor: Sinclair, Andrew Source: UKPlace: LondonPublisher: Weidenfeld & NicolsonPubDate: 1987PhysDes: 162 p., [12] p. of plates : ill., ports. ; 24 cmSubject: SPIEGEL, SAM Summary: "The story of the outstanding producer who made four of the greatest films of all time: On the Waterfront, The African Queen, Bridge on the River Kwai, and Lawrence of Arabia. Spiegel oversaw every aspect of his productions and was a central force in the European and American film world. His private life, crowded with women and gambling, was in stark contrast to his public life, in which such figures as Greta Garbo, Edward Heath, Harold Pinter, Elizabeth Taylor, and Marlon Brando met and exchanged ideas with the British Royal Family, the Kennedys, and the Rainiers. He became an international celebrity rivalling Onassis on his yacht. Thinking of Spiegel's early days as an illiegal immigrant who passed dud cheques and had to fight for acceptance, a friend observed, 'Living well is the best revenge.' Searching interviews with friends, foes, and colleagues, and his own personal knowledge of Spiegel, have enabled Sinclair to create this exceptionally powerful portait." -- BOOK JACKETNotes: Includes index.; Bibliography: p. 145-151.ISBN: 0297792105Donation: Donated by Senses Of Cinema, 2009Contents: -- list of illustrations -- trailers -- 1: moving pictures -- 2: false starts -- 3: a guest of his majesty's government -- 4: S.P Eagle flies high -- 5: Hollywood years -- 6: The African Queen -- 7: the eagle folds its wings -- 8: The Bridge on thr River Kwai -- 9: suddenly last Spiegel -- 10: Lawrence of Arabia -- 11: when he stopped listening -- 12 : another Spiegel -- 13 : the last czar -- 14 : the betrayal of mortality -- acknowledgements -- selected bibliography -- articles -- newspaper references -- index --
