Book synopsis

This is a collection of interviews across five decades with one of the most influential film directors ever.Beginning in 1957 with the release of his directorial debut "The Left Handed Gun", Arthur Penn quickly became an iconoclastic and hugely influential film director.Moving deftly between comedy and tragedy, realism and absurdity, his films - such as "Mickey One" (1965), "Bonnie and Clyde" (1967), "Little Big Man" (1970), "Night Moves" (1975) - speak to the troubles times in which they were made, while remaining timeless in their unsettling portrayal of characters on the margins of society."Arthur Penn: Interviews" brings together a compelling collection of interviews spanning 45 years from his first in-depth discussion with Cashiers du cinema in 1963 to a brand new interview from 2007, that explore every stage of his career - actor, writer, director, producer - and reveal Penn's ever-changing ideas on the nature of film and filmmaking.
