Ultimately responsible for the creative content on screen,
directors are the captains of the ship on every film. All actors
and heads of department report to them. Some directors are also
writers, employing unique styles of dialogue and characterisation;
others, like Pedro Almodovar, create inimitable visual and tonal
styles which mark their films out from the crowd. Unlike the other
volumes in the series, the directing book covers all the
disciplines of the film art, from development and writing, to
working with actors, designers and cinematographers, to
postproduction and distribution. Among the filmmakers giving
glimpses of their processes in this volume will be US legend Clint
Eastwood, Latin visonary Guillermo Del Toro as well as Park
Chan-wook, Stephen Frears, Terry Gilliam, Susanne Bier, the
Dardenne Brothers, Istvan Szabo, Amos Gitai and Paul Greengrass.
