Fascinating time capsule of the cinematic world
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Hundreds of film artists from around the world documented their day in this historic account of what, for most of the diarists, was an ordinary work-day. The most well-written entries are by the least well-known people - my favorite is by cult film director Jurgen Vsych (who recently published her brilliant memoir, "The Woman Director"). Vsych's description of what it's like for a struggling young director to find financing for her feature debut is hilarious.
