Synopsis
Like many of the hard-boiled heroes who inhabited his films, John Huston was a towering, iconic figure. A heavy drinker, compulsive gambler, avid game hunter, and irrepressible playboy, Huston directed over 40 films in just about that many years, including lionized classics such as THE MALTESE FALCON and THE TREASURE OF THE SIERRA MADRE. Part of the "Conversations with Filmmakers" series, this book is composed of interviews with John Huston recorded between 1952 and 1985. Edited into a narrative form by Robert Emmet Long, the trajectory is an intertwining braid of his on- and off-set life, full of rich anecdotes and hilarious insights. Huston talks about his background as a painter, boxer, and literary aficionado, his friendships with such larger-than-life luminaries as Errol Flynn and Humphrey Bogart, and of course, his experience of and advice on directing movies. Black-and-white film stills and a detailed filmography are included.
