Art of Sergio Leone's Once Upon a Time in the West: A Critical Appreciation
ISBN: 9780786420926 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 223 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Few directors are characterized by both extraordinary film craft and the ironic reputation for lowbrow films. Despite his many achievements as a child of the Italian Cinecitta studios, however, Sergio Leone has been judged severely by writers who find his films lacking in ideas and moralists who find his films unduly cynical. Nevertheless, Leone's greatest cinematic achievement, Once Upon a Time in the West, served to refute these criticisms while exposing the director's unique romanticism and artistic ambition. As Leone's fourth successful American western film, Once Upon a Time in the West...

The Essence of Chaplin: The Style, the Rhythm and the Grace of a Master
ISBN: 9780786476343 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

The Hidden Art of Hollywood: In Defense of the Studio Era Film
ISBN: 9780313356926 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Although we tend to accord our highest praise to films with strong messages, Hollywood is resolutely unserious in its goals, and closer perhaps to music than to literature in this regard. Thus, in order to appreciate Hollywood's classic movies, we have to understand them as the result of a style of filmmaking that justifies itself through the grace and beauty of its form. This beauty, when seen, challenges our notion of film as the poorer cousin of the high arts, or as worthwhile only when it serves a social purpose. "The Hidden Art of Hollywood" draws from a huge fund of recorded...
