5.0 out of 5 stars
An essential book for the admirers of Kim Novak,
By
This review is from: Kim Novak on Camera (Hardcover)
This is a book worthy of it's subject. While the major focus is on Kim Novak's films, there is plenty of well researched biographical information as well. This book offers much more than the usual listing of films and reprints of old reviews --- the author made it a point to view each of Miss Novak's films and he discusses them in great detail, exploring the different way she approached every role. The book has the ring of truth due to Kleno's keen eye for spotting (and shunning) the kind of phony quotes and false rumors that mar so many celebrity books. At the same time, he does not ignore the areas of conflict and controversey in her personal life that at times negatively impacted her career, and her life. Of particular value are the interviews Kleno conducted with Novak's co-workers, which provide welcome illumination about this reclusive actress. Larry Kleno's painstaking research and thoughtful analysis has produced a book which is essential to anyone interested in the work of Kim Novak. PUBLISHERS TAKE NOTE: In view of the recent restoration and re-release of Vertigo (including it's inclusion in the AFI's top 100 list), isn't it time for a publisher to issue a reprint of this fine book?
