A must have for those that enjoy films,
By
This review is from: The Blue Angel (Classical Film Scripts S) (Hardcover)
Many a time I needed someone to tell me when my shoe was untied, or many other obvious things in front of my face that I just do not notice. Well it is the same will films; you get so absorbed in the main message or the dialog and miss many subtle currents that are woven into the film. At other time, you are not sure what the characters are saying or thinking as you would in a book. This (Lorrimer Publishing, London) series of film scripts and fill in those missing items and then some.
Until the advent of multi DVD versions with voice over narration, there was no efficient way to enjoy what the film did not overtly say. In addition, the dialog was difficult to go back. Yet even with this advantage, there is still something more tactile about having a book. This book contains many stills from the film to allow you to take the time to see what is really happening. The Pictures can also be looked at as souvenirs. There is an excellent introduction by Josef Von Sternberg himself. There are stage directions and explanations of how the dialog is to be presented. Now sit back read and enjoy (or at least get engrossed). Lola "singing": Men Cluster to me Like moths around a flame And if their wings burn I know I'm not to blame The pictures on Page (88) tell it all. |
