Founded in 1973, the journal Literature/Film Quarterly has featured
interviews with some of the most prominent and influential
filmmakers from around the world. In Conversations with Directors:
An Anthology of Interviews from Literature/Film Quarterly, the
journal's coeditors have assembled an exciting collection of
interviews spanning 35 years of the internationally-renowned
publication and representing a broad spectrum of artistic
approaches, industrial contexts, and cultural concerns.
Interviewees include classic Hollywood directors like Robert Wise,
Billy Wilder, and Frank Capra; European auteurs such as Eric
Rohmer, Federico Fellini, and Louis Malle; New Hollywood directors
such as William Friedkin, John Schlesinger, and Robert Altman;
women directors such as Martha Coolidge and Patricia Rozema;
contemporary filmmakers like Richard Linklater and Baz Luhrmann;
and documentary and avant-garde filmmakers. Organized
chronologically, each interview is preceded by a short introduction
that establishes a contemporary context, along with providing the
reader with a clear sense of the interview's primary concerns,
usefully illuminating the many fascinating, and sometimes
surprising, points of connection and difference between the
directors. The editors of this collection explore these connections
for the reader, with a particular emphasis on such recurring
subjects as auteurism, realism, editing, cinematography,
soundtracks, budgets, documentary versus narrative film, mainstream
versus avant-garde cinema, processes of adaptation, collaborations
with actors, and issues of artistic control. By assembling this
collection, the editors have provided a single volume where readers
may access the best interviews from the journal's pages over the
last several decades. Ultimately, Conversations with Directors will
prove to be an invaluable resource to both scholars and film fans
who are eager to gain further insight into these directors and
their work.
