Couverture souple. Zustand: Très bon. Dans la collection "Cinéma". Soixante photographies en noir et blanc. Mémento des collaborateurs de Woody Allen, filmographie, chronologie, bibliographie (recueils, pièces, scenarii, articles, disques, bandes originales, livres, interviews et articles). Livre en très bon état, couverture très solide mais à la couleur un peu passée. Quatrième de couverture : "A l'époque où le cinéma américain vibre d'effets spéciaux tapageurs de ses nouveaux wonderboys, Woody Allen demeure, loin d'Hollywood et de ses systèmes, un auteur à l'européenne. Né en 1935 à Brooklyn, le plus célèbre représentant de l'humour juif new-yorkais est aujourd'hui consacré comme un grand cinéaste par une intelligentsia dont ses films reflètent les moeurs et les modes avec autant de drôlerie que d'acuité sociologique. En une quinzaine de chapitres plus ou moins graves, Woody Allen a ainsi édifié ce qu'il convient de considérer aujourd'hui comme une oeuvre majeure, par sa cohérence aussi bien que par sa profondeur. Des débuts du comédien et du scénariste de Quoi de neuf, Pussycat ? à la maturité triomphante du réalisateur de September, le rouquin à lunettes le plus célèbre de l'histoire du cinéma jongle avec les références culturelles et cinéphiliques en racontant toujours la même histoire : la sienne. Film après film, il a su tisser sa toile et développer des collaborations qui témoignent d'une exemplaire fidélité, tout en rendant hommage à deux femmes, ses muses : Diane Keaton et Mia Farrow. Quand l'un de ses films sort, le tournage du suivant est déjà en cours. On a beau guetter Woody Allen au tournant, il est déjà loin. Il aurait pu se contenter d'être le plus brillant disciple des frères Marx, il est devenu le Bergman de l'Amérique. Une institution.". Livre.

Couverture souple. Zustand: Neuf. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Neuf. Edition originale. Issu, avec Scorsese, Spielberg, Lucas et De Palma de la génération des wonderboys, ces jeunes prodiges aussi talentueux que cinéphiles qui ont submergé, dans les années soixante-dix, le système des studios hollywoodiens de leurs immenses succès publics, acquérant un pouvoir que jamais les réalisateurs n'avaient obtenu jusqu'alors, Francis Ford Coppola reste, pour le public, l'auteur de la saga mythique du Parrain et du show métaphysique Apocalypse Now. Les studios font alors confiance à ce jeune Italo-Américain, fasciné par l'âge d'or d'Hollywood et qui sait en ressusciter la splendeur avec insolence, dirigeant les plus grands acteurs, Brando, Pacino ou De Niro. Quant à la jeunesse du monde entier, elle s'empare de ses images pour donner corps à sa mobilisation contre la guerre du Vietnam. En dix ans de carrière, il obtient tout : les plus grands succès au box-office, les Oscars, deux Palmes d'or à Cannes. Reste la poursuite de son utopie : la création d'un studio alternatif à San Francisco, Zoetrope, où il produit des prototypes géniaux qu'il peut entièrement contrôler. S'ensuit une alternance de beaux films personnels, comme Outsiders, et de superbes mises en scène de films de commande qu'il sait à chaque fois imprimer de sa touche (Peggy Sue s'est mariée, Cotton Club, Tucker, Dracula.). C'est justement cette " Coppola touch " que décrypte cet ouvrage : une thématique qui court de film en film - celle de la grandeur et de la déchéance des mortels qui un jour se sont pris pour des dieux - et la morale d'un artiste - cet impératif de la transmission, qui lie non seulement le parrain et sa famille, mais tous les êtres humains.

Paper. Zustand: As New. First Thus. This is a look at the origin of the name of your favourite sports team. I always had wondered about Tottenham Hotspurs!! The author looks at name histories for professional sports leagues such as Major League Baseball. Also hockey, basketball and football - both Canadian and American. Add in college teams (Canada & U.S.) - British Premier League and the `Best of the Rest'. Cond: Blue paper wrapper, around 242 pages, has blue team jacket logo/graphic. Corners and edges are all CRISP. Creases and tears DO NOT exist. Neither do names and marks. Tight!! Each section is led off by a b/w stadium graphic but the book is otherwise UNillustrated. (Likely a copyright issue!) Ever wonder how the Memphis Tigers or the Syracuse Orangemen got their names. How about the Bangor Blue Ox. There is an Internet sports surfers guide on pages 237 to 242. A quote from page 130: " When Edward O. `Jumbo' Stiehm was hired as coach in 1911, the team's unofficial moniker became the STIEHM ROLLERS. What team, what sport would that be???.

The Pulitzer Prize-winning author-- "an immensely gifted writer and a magical prose stylist" (Michiko Kakutani, "New York Times")--offers his first major work of nonfiction, an autobiographical narrative as inventive, beautiful, and powerful as his acclaimed, award-winning fiction. A shy manifesto, an impractical handbook, the true story of a fabulist, an entire life in parts and pieces, "Manhood for Amateurs" is the first sustained work of personal writing from Michael Chabon. In these insightful, provocative, slyly interlinked essays, one of our most brilliant and humane writers presents his autobiography and his vision of life in the way so many of us experience our own lives: as a series of reflections, regrets, and reexaminations, each sparked by an encounter, in the present, that holds some legacy of the past. What does it mean to be a man today? Chabon invokes and interprets and struggles to reinvent for us, with characteristic warmth and lyric wit, the personal and family history that haunts him even as--simply because--it goes on being written every day. As a devoted son, as a passionate husband, and above all as the father of four young Americans, Chabon presents his memories of childhood, of his parents' marriage and divorce, of moments of painful adolescent comedy and giddy encounters with the popular art and literature of his own youth, as a theme played--on different instruments, with a fresh tempo and in a new key--by the mad quartet of which he now finds himself co-conductor. At once dazzling, hilarious, and moving, "Manhood for Amateurs" is destined to become a classic. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - A Telegraph Book of the Year - A New York Times Notable Book of the Year - A Washington Post Book of the Year - A Wall Street Journal Book of the Year - A Slate Book of the Year 'Probably Chabon's greatest, a piece of sustained writing that will be hard to see outdone in 2017' The Times 'Entirely sure footed, propulsive, the work of a master at his very best. The brilliance of Moonglow stands as a strident defence of the form itself, a bravura demonstration of the endless mutability and versatility of the novel' Observer 'The world, like the Tower of Babel or my grandmother's deck of cards, was made out of stories, and it was always on the verge of collapse.' Moonglow unfolds as a deathbed confession. An old man, his tongue loosened by powerful painkillers, his memory stirred by the imminence of death, tells stories to his grandson, uncovering bits and pieces of a history long buried. Why did he try to strangle a former business partner with a telephone cord What was he thinking when he and a buddy set explosives on a bridge in Washington, D.C. What did he feel while he hunted down Wernher von Braun in Germany And what did he see in the young girl he met in Baltimore after returning home from the war From the Jewish slums of pre-war Philadelphia to the invasion of Germany, from a Florida retirement village to the penal utopia of a New York prison, from the heyday of the space programme to the twilight of 'the American Century', Moonglow collapses an era into a single life and a lifetime into a single week. 430 pp. Englisch.
