Overview

David Breskin is a fantastically talented interviewer: he has a knack for asking probing questions and the good sense to make sure his subjects answer them directly. He's assured enough not to be cowed by his famous interviewees, but humble enough to let them do most of the talking,Inner Views contains eight length conversations that Breskin held with some of the most prominent modern film directors, many of them caught in the process of making their most important recent works. Francis Ford Coppola reveals the reasons for makingThe Godfather Part III after sixteen years of refusals. Oliver Stone traces his life from his earliest memories tot he making ofJFK. Spike Lee, fresh from the success ofDo the Right Thing, talks about the meaning of that movie and ofJungle Fever, which followed it. Robert Altman waxes eloquently on his unique filmmaking process, particularly as it relates toThe Player andShort Cuts. And Clint Eastwood, caught just before the release ofUnforgiven, gives a lively overview of his career. Throw in engrossing conversations with David Lynch, David Cronenberg, and Tim Burton and you have a book that provides indispensable insight into the live and work of the world's most intriguing filmmakers.
