The Oliver Stone Experience by Matt Zoller Seitz
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 3.9MB
Overview: Oliver Stone himself serves as guide to this no-holds-barred retrospective, an extremely candid and comprehensive monograph of the renowned and controversial writer, director and cinematic historian in interview form.
Over the course of five years, Academy Award-winning filmmaker Oliver Stone (Midnight Express, Scarface, Platoon, JFK, Natural Born Killers, Snowden) and The New York Times bestselling author Matt Zoller Seitz (The Wes Anderson Collection) discussed, debated and deconstructed the arc of Stone’s outspoken, controversial life and career with extraordinary candor. This book collects those conversations for the first time, including anecdotes about Stone’s childhood, Vietnam, his struggles with post-traumatic stress disorder and his continual struggle to reinvent himself as an artist. Critical commentary from Seitz on each of Stone’s films is joined by original essays from filmmaker Ramin Bahrani, writer, editor and educator Kiese Laymon, writer and actor Jim Beaver (Deadwood) and film critics Walter Chaw, Michael Guarnieri, Kim Morgan and Alissa Wilkinson.
At once a complex analysis of a master director’s vision and a painfully honest critical biography in widescreen technicolor, The Oliver Stone Experience is as daring, intense and provocative as Stone’s films. It’s an Oliver Stone movie about Oliver Stone, in the form of a book.
