Inhaltsangabe

The official companion book to the darkly humorous action film from director Shane Black. Directed by celebrated writer/director Shane Black, The Nice Guys: From Script to Screen chronicles the noir/buddy film set in Los Angeles in the 1970s, starring A-listers Russell Crowe and Ryan Gosling as reluctant partners trying to solve a missing persons case. Set during the 1970s in smog-ridden Los Angeles, The Nice Guys is the story about a Los Angeles private investigator (Ryan Gosling) who reluctantly partners with a tough guy (Russell Crowe) to find a missing girl. Their investigation reveals a connection between the missing girl to porn star Misty Mountains, recently dead from a car crash. In classic Shane Black fashion, the writer/director spins a darkly humorous noir, as our pair crisscrosses the city, from Bel Air to downtown L.A. Richly illustrated, the book is a visit back in time to the glamour (and seediness) of the City of Angels circa 1977. The film is equal parts mystery and a love letter to a Los Angeles of long ago, and The Nice Guys: From Script to Screen is sure to captivate fans of the film and of Los Angeles alike.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Set during the 1970s in smog-ridden Los Angeles, The Nice Guys is the story about a washed-up Los Angeles private investigator (Ryan Gosling) who reluctantly partners with a former fighter (Russell Crowe) to look into the apparent suicide of a fading adult film star. In classic Shane Black fashion, the film is at its heart a buddy movie; in spite of its dark subject matter, the story comes with tremendous wit and humor. The book will include observations from writer/director Shane Black, Executive Producer Joel Silver, and other crew; still photographs, story boards, and inspirations for recreating the look of LA in the mid-1970s; and other ephemera such as Black’s annotated script. The movie The Nice Guys is equal parts mystery and a love letter to a Los Angeles of long ago, and The Nice Guys: From Script to Screen is sure to captivate fans of the film and of Los Angeles alike.
