Retracing the steps of countless iconic actors, cinematographers and directors, he draws up a unique cinematic map of The City That Never Sleeps.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Praise for <i>Little White Lies</i>: </p><p>'The most beautiful film magazine on the shelves' <i>Guardian</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>Mark Asch served as Film Editor for <i>The L Magazine</i> and its sister publication <i>Brooklyn Magazine</i>, on and off, from 2007 to 2017. A graduate of NYU's Cinema Studies program, he has lived in Alphabet City, in the same building as Richard Kern; in Bed-Stuy halfway between the locations of <i>Do the Right Thing</i> and Dave Chappelle's <i>Block Party</i>; in Clinton Hill, where he shopped at the same Met Foods where the young Notorious B.I.G. bagged groceries; and in Prospect-Lefferts Gardens, a few blocks down from the old Ebbets Field and Freddie Fitzsimmons Lanes, where Shirley MacLaine rolls a few frames in <i>Desperate Characters</i>.</p>
