The Films of Alan Parker, 1976-2003

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The offbeat musicals... The stylized biopics... The visceral social dramas... The one-of-kind genre films... These are the types of films British director, writer, producer and cartoonist Sir Alan Parker has worked on. Parker is known for his humility as a director and has never considered himself an auteur. This book is the first study of his complete body of feature films (1976-2003).
