<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>No saint, no pope, no general, no sultan, has ever had the power that a filmmaker has--the power to talk to hundreds of millions of people for two hours in the dark. --Frank Capra <p/>Inspiring everything from pop culture earthquakes to popular revolutions, filmmakers have demonstrated an uncanny ability to move the masses. But the drama they project on screen is only half the picture. Stretching back from its earliest days of two-reel silent films to the latest 3-D digital blockbusters, film history provides a cast of characters ready to spill witty bon mots, outrageous pronouncements, and heartfelt reflections. <i>The Filmmaker Says</i> is a colorful compendium of quotations from more than one hundred of history's most influential and opinionated creators of filmed entertainment. Paired like guests at the ultimate filmgeek dinner party--a celebrated filmmaker of today might sit next to a giant from the silent era--the members of this raucous crew puts on a show arguing, complimenting, and disagreeing with each other about every step of the moviemaking process. A perfect gift for working filmmakers, aspiring auteurs, and avid moviegoers, <i>The Filmmaker Says</i> will delight anyone who has dreamed of yelling action or just can't wait for the lights to go down and the curtain to go up.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Compelling and sometimes controversial words from the visionaries behind the camera...from Charlie Chaplin to Kathryn Bigelow to Akira Kurasawa. Their words, compiled and carefully arranged by Jamie Thompson Stern to create a flowing dialogue, are sure to inspire budding film students and avid moviegoers alike. - Cool Hunting<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Jamie Thompson Stern is a freelance writer and editor living in Los Angeles, CA
