[nice clean copy, with no discernible wear to book; the jacket has just a touch of wear at the bottom edge of the rear panel and a couple of soft vertical creases in the front flap]. (B&W photographs) "A provocative selection of the filmmaker's private writings and public lectures and interviews -- most never published before -- interwoven with transcripts of the classes Ray taught in acting and directing. From these rich materials Susan Ray has assembled a clear and detailed statement on the art of filmmaking that is certain to serve as a guide for generations of practitioners of film and theater craft. In its sensitive juxtaposition of class materials with essays, letters, notes, and journal entries, [the book] reveals the mind of an artist who worked and dreamed with a commitment that spared no one, least of all himself." In a long Introduction, Susan Ray (Nick's widow), discusses their life and work together during the last decade of the filmmaker's life, and Ray biographer Bernard Eisenschitz has provided a biographical outline.

Descripci�n de la librer�a

Welcome to ReadInk (pronounced like "Dead Ink"), now in its 27th year of putting interesting books into the hands of interested people. Our watchwords here are: * Availability. Every book listed for sale is in my possession and available for purchase; every image posted is a picture of the actual book on offer. * Service. Although I occasionally adopt the so-called "royal We," in fact ReadInk is just Me -- I handle everything from one end of the pipeline to the other: buying, cataloging, customer service, shipping, you name it. Nothing automated here -- just prompt, personal attention to every order. * Accurate Description. I use standard book-grading terminology -- Good, Very Good, Fine (with various +/- gradations as appropriate) -- and try to avoid both excessive jargon and obsessive amounts of detail. "Fine" is my highest grade, and a book has to be darn near perfect to earn it; even the smallest flaw or blemish will knock the grade down to "Near Fine.? I strive to present a faithful impression of a book?s condition and appearance; significant flaws such as remainder marks, previous owner's names, tears in the dust jacket, etc. are always noted, or if too numerous are reasonably summarized. * Information. Whenever practical, I try to include some information about a book's content in my listing, even if only a carefully chosen quotation from the dust jacket copy. This may sound like a small thing, but take a look sometime and you'll see how amazingly few sellers bother with this. On the occasions I let this slide, it's generally because the book is a common one, or because the title itself is sufficiently descriptive. * Care for the Book. I package all books with great care, to ensure they will withstand the rigors of the U.S. Postal System, and will reach their new owners in the same condition as advertised. My specific packaging techniques vary according to the needs of the book itself, but either a sturdy box or an unbendable package is always involved. (No bubble envelopes, ever, unless the contents are thoroughly protected within.) That?s all there is to ReadInk: just a guy who has loved books all my life (perhaps to excess) and entered the trade in my "middle years" to see what I could make of it. And I'm still finding out. My inventory appears here on AbeBooks and on my own website ? www.readinkbooks.com. Come on in! Howard Prouty, prop.
