Oliver Stone Experience (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Stone himself serves as guide to this no-holds-barred retrospectiveâEUR"an extremely candid and comprehensive monograph of the renowned and controversial writer, director, and cinematic historian in interview form.

Over the course of five years, Academy Award-winning filmmaker Oliver Stone (Midnight Express, Scarface, Platoon, JFK, Natural Born Killers, Snowden) and New York Times bestselling author Matt Zoller Seitz (The Wes Anderson Collection) discussed, debated, and deconstructed the arc of Stone's outspoken, controversial life and career with extraordinary candor. This book collects those conversations for the first time, including anecdotes about Stone's childhood, Vietnam, his struggles with post-traumatic stress disorder, and his continual struggle to reinvent himself as an artist. Critical commentary from Seitz on each of Stone's films is joined by original essays from filmmaker Ramin Bahrani; writer, editor, and educator Kiese Laymon; writer and actor Jim Beaver; and film critics Walter Chaw, Michael Guarnieri, Kim Morgan, and Alissa Wilkinson.Â

At once a complex analysis of a master directorâEUR(TM)s vision and a painfully honest critical biography in widescreen technicolor, The Oliver Stone Experience is as daring, intense, and provocative as StoneâEUR(TM)s filmsâEUR"it's an Oliver Stone movie about Oliver Stone, in the form of a book.

Both this book and StoneâEUR(TM)s highly anticipated film, Snowden, will be released in September 2016 to coincide with StoneâEUR(TM)s seventieth birthday (September 15, 1946).

Also available from Matt Zoller Seitz: Mad Men Carousel, The Wes Anderson Collection: Bad Dads, The Wes Anderson Collection: The Grand Budapest Hotel, and The Wes Anderson Collection.
