The Devil's Candy: The Anatomy Of A Hollywood Fiasco par Julie Salamon
Unflinching story of the making of a huge budget Hollywood movie by Director Brian de Palma and the enormous crowd of specialists involved in creating a movie. Julie Salamon had a very unusual degree of open access plus complete cooperation from De Palma and the crew and this is reflected in the book’s unique insider portrayal of how a movie gets made.
Eine süße kleine Weihnachtsgeschichte über eine Nonne, die mit einem Baum gemeinsam aufgewachsen ist und den Gärtner von Rockefeller-Center, der Jahr für Jahr den perfekten Weihnachtsbaum sucht. Freundschaft ist immer möglich, zwischen Mensch und Mensch, aber auch zwischen Mensch und Baum.
I was hoping for some technical details and some explanation of Hollywood accounting, instead it's mostly what you'd normally read in gossip mags, except well researched. Can't help but be annoyed by the reverence to the subject. You're making a movie. You're not building a plane, repairing a car, uncovering mysteries of the universe or saving lives. You're making entertainment. I wish the book kept some perspective on it.
The definitive story of one American family at the center of a single, shocking act of international terrorism that "manages to capture the essence of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict"
