Description de l'ouvrage :
Few would imagine that one man links Ridley Scott s visionary sci-fi classic Blade Runner; The Deer Hunter, that searing study of lives ruined by the Vietnam War; and The Italian Job, the much loved British caper that made an icon of Michael Caine. But Michael Deeley has worked with some of the toughest film-makers, and lived to tell the tale, in this frank and humorous rollercoaster-ride through the ways and wiles of getting great movies made.
À propos des auteurs :
MATTHEW FIELD began his writing career with the book The Making of The Italian Job and later co-produced a feature-length documentary about the film for Paramount Pictures. In 2008, he penned the autobiography of Oscar-winning film producer Michael Deeley: Blade Runners, Deer Hunters and Blowing the Bloody Doors Off! He was an editorial consultant on the film Everything or Nothing, which marked the 50th anniversary of the James Bond film series, and regularly contributes on the world of Bond for MI6 Confidential and Cinema Retro. He currently serves on the board of directors of The Ian Fleming® Foundation and works full-time for a leading London-based entertainment PR agency.
Revue de Presse :
You’ll enjoy this book. I did.
Sir Michael Caine
This book is packed with hilarious stories... Deeley was not a run-of-the-mill producer churning out crap; he carefully nurtured engrossing films, some which are now regarded as classics. That makes this book a great read for anyone interested in the film business.
Janet Street-Porter
Colourful accounts of dealings with film-makers reflect his enthusiasm for quirky commercial cinema combined with a bulldog-like gusto for business warfare... The Blade Runner chapters are particularly illuminating and demonstrate Deeley’s considerable producing skills... For lovers of books about our mysterious, impenetrable world, this is a must.
This is a fascinating, British producer’s insider view of the movie business.
