Everything Is Cinema
The Working Life of Jean-Luc Godard
Richard Brody
Picador
"Richard Brody’s
Everything Is Cinema: The Working Life of Jean-Luc Godard
is a story of transformation, a painstaking account of a lifelong artistic journey . . . [A] meticulously detailed book . . .
Everything Is Cinema
works its way methodically through Godard’s career, beginning with his days as a young cinephile in the early 1950s, writing for Parisian film journals like
La Gazette du Cinéma
and, later, the newly founded
Cahiers du Cinéma
. Brody explains that Godard’s entree into the French film industry, via writing criticism, was 'revolutionary and didactic': Godard and his contemporaries—among them future filmmakers of the
nouvelle vague
including François Truffaut, Jacques Rivette and Maurice Schérer (better known to filmgoers as Eric Rohmer)—educated themselves by making pilgrimages to screenings at the Cinémathèque and the Cine-Club du Quartier Latin, where they might see three or four films a day."—

Burton on Burton, 2nd Revised Edition
Tim Burton; Edited by Mark Salisbury; Foreword by Johnny Depp
Faber and Faber, Inc.
"[Burton] is, to me, a true genius and I wouldn't use that word with too many people, believe me. You can't label what he does. It's not magic, because that would imply some sort of trickery. It's not just skill, because that seems like it's learned. What he has is a very special gift that we don't see every day. It's not enough to call him a filmmaker. The rare title of 'genius' is a better fit—in not just film but drawings, photographs, thought, insight, and ideas . . . I have never seen someone so obviously out of place fit right in."—
