Overview
\"\"This study of the cinema of Joel and Ethan Coen examines the theme of violence that runs through the brothers' work via chapters that scrutinize the motives, thoughts, and actions of the principal characters in each of the Coen Brothers' films. In the world depicted in the films, suggests the author, violence always has devastating, unintended consequences on the characters, both for those who live by violence and those are just bystanders to the violent acts of others. Covering all of the Coens' films except the most recent (2009's A Serious Man), this engagingly written book will interest both film scholars and cinema fans.\"---Reference & Research Book News\" \"\"Arguing that Clint Eastwood stands alongside Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg as one of the finest directors working in modern American film, Foote (director. Toronto Film School) examines each film Eastwood has directed, from Play Misty for Me in 1971 to Changeling in 2008. Each film chapter contains a detailed synopsis and analysis of its critical reception, along with behind-the-scenes details on cast and shooting. A filmography and a list of awards and nominations are included.\"---Reference & Research Book News\" \"\"Julia Ain-Krupa surveys Polanski's career with the eye of an explorer and the heart of a connoisseur, linking the contents of his films with the events of his complicated life.
