With particular emphasis on animation, this fifth of a series in which film-makers discuss their art includes an extensive interview with Nick Park, the double-Oscar-winning creator of the "Wallace and Gromit" films. There is also an interview with the American animator, Henry Selick, creator of "The Nightmare Before Christmas", and a piece about the founding figure of stop-motion animated film, Ray Harryhausen. Other pieces include an article by Freddie Young, who discusses his work as a cameraman on "Lawrence of Arabia" and "Doctor Zhivago", notes by Eleanor Coppola about the making of "The Godfather III" and "Dracula", and coverage of Quentin Tarantino's encounter with Brian De Palma. The book looks to the past with veteran director Fred Zinneman, and to the future with Tod Haynes's "Safe".
Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com Review
One of the best issues of Projections, this book features interviews with some of the greatest living animators. Nick Park, creator of the Wallace and Gromit shorts, Henry Selick, director of The Nightmare Before Christmas and James and the Giant Peach, and Ray Harryhausen, the genius of stop-motion photography, talk about the frustrations and joys of their craft. But terrific as they are, these pieces are just a warm up. The issue also features, among other articles, an interview with Tony Curtis conducted by his daughter Jamie Lee, a conversation between Brian DePalma and Quentin Tarantino, a long and wonderful chat with Jimmy Stewart, and an exchange between Walter Donohue and Fred Zimmerman, director of High Noon, From Here to Eternity, and Julia.
