Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Neuware - Legendary director Harold Becker reflects on his remarkable career, from his formative years in New York and his acclaimed work as a commercial photographer to becoming a Hollywood hitmaker. "A captivating memoir that showcases Harold’s profound wisdom and sophistication as a photographer, filmmaker, and now as a writer. His storytelling is joyous and unpretentious, offering readers an inside look at his striking photography and dynamic films. It’s a magic carpet ride through his life, making readers feel part of his journey." —Al PacinoHarold Becker was adept at photography from an early age, with a keen eye for elegance and beauty. He parlayed his unique skills into a successful career as a commercial photographer before becoming entranced by the moving image and independent filmmaking, pouring everything he had into his independent endeavors. After achieving acclaim for a series of thought-provoking documentaries, he was soon swept up in the New Hollywood movement and made the jump to feature films, getting his big break with the unflinching and hypnotic adaptation of Joseph Wambaugh’s true-crime story, The Onion Field. "The actor/director relationship is an odd, yet amazing tango of inspiration, dedication, and, yes, manipulation. Harold’s lovely, deeply personal prose gave me an insight that I never fully grasped until I was fortunate enough to read Catching the Light. To be privy to the artist’s mind at work is a rare gift for the reader." —James Woods Even while working in the Hollywood system, Becker never suppressed his independent spirit, becoming known as a fiercely determined actor’s director. In Catching the Light, he revisits each of his best-known films and takes readers inside the experience of making them, casting then-unknown names from James Wood and Ted Danson in The Onion Field, to Sean Penn and Tom Cruise in TAPS, from Matthew Modine and Madonna in Vision Quest, to his fruitful collaborations with Al Pacino in Sea of Love and City Hall. All the while, Becker shares the lessons learned and insights gained from making movies in an ever more complicated and convoluted Hollywood system, making for an indispensable read for movie lovers and aspiring filmmakers.…
