His witty, incisive criticism later worked exacting language into an exploration of the feelings and strategies that went into low-budget and radical films as diverse as Michael Snow's Wavelength, Werner Herzog's Fata Morgana, and Shantal Akerman's Jeanne Dielman. Expanded with an in-depth interview and seven essays written in collaboration with his wife, artist Patricia Patterson, Negative Space gathers Farber's most influential writings, making this an indispensable collection for all lovers of film Notes: "First Da Capo Press edition"--T.p. verso; Includes index ISBN: 0306808293 (pbk. : alk. paper) LON: 13667387 More info

Pennebaker, 1967) Summary: "Nonfiction film is the first work to document the whole history of nonfiction film from the 1920s to the present day. The main emphasis of the book is on the British and American cinema and hundreds of documentary, action, and 'actuality' films from Nanook of the North to Woodstock and Gimme Shelter are described, discussed and analysed, including films by the great pioneers such as Robert Flaherty, Basil Wright, John Grierson and Paul Rotha and the new experimental film makers like Richard Leacock, D. A. Pennebaker, Frederick Wiseman and Albert and David Maysles. Richard Barsam provides a critical framework against which the non-fiction film can be studied and enjoyed. Among the many topics covered are early American, Russian and Continental films, the British and American films of the twenties and thirties, the films of World War II and the whole range of styles and subjects of the fifties, sixties and today." -- BOOK BLURB Notes: Originally published: New York : Dutton, 1973; Bibl.: p.317-321. - List of films: p.299-316. - Index ISBN: 0047910313 (Pbk) : ª1.95; 0047910305 LON: 1923477 Contents: 1.

Subject: WELLES, ORSON; BOGDANOVICH, PETER; HUSTON, JOHN; HOPPER, DENNIS; OTHER SIDE OF THE WIND, THE (US/FR/IR, Orson Welles, 2018) Summary: In the summer of 1970 legendary but self-destructive director Orson Welles returned to Hollywood from years of self-imposed exile in Europe and decided it was time to make a comeback movie. Coincidentally it was the story of a legendary self-destructive director who returns to Hollywood from years of self-imposed exile in Europe. Welles swore it wasn't autobiographical. The Other Side of the Wind was supposed to take place during a single day, and Welles planned to shoot it in eight weeks. It took twelve years and remains unreleased and largely unseen. Orson Welles' Last Movie is a fast-paced, behind-the-scenes account of the bizarre, hilarious and remarkable making of what has been called "the greatest home movie that no one has ever seen."
