Description
This book offers impressive explanations of director/producer/writer Spielberg's work - his incredibly popular films - and a chronology. Authors Mott and Saunders emphasize style, influences, motifs, and cinematic techniques, and discuss, as well, Spielberg's use of special effects, including computerized videoassisted techniques. An informative and engaging look at one of America's most talented filmmakers, this critical study clearly shows why Spielberg revolutionized the American movie industry through his innovative style and concern for the interests of an increasingly youthful audience.
