Comprehensive and insightful, , is the ultimate companion to the
master director's latest work. Inspired by William Lindsay
Gresham's cult 1947 novel, Nightmare Alley stars Bradley Cooper as
Stanton "Stan" Carlisle, a talented but troubled drifter who takes
up with a travelling carnival. Ingratiating himself with its troupe
of misfits, Stan swindles his way to fortune and fame, but when he
meets psychiatrist Lilith Ritter (Cate Blanchett), his greed and
duplicity will put him on the path to self-destruction. Also
starring Toni Collette, Willem Dafoe, Richard Jenkins, and Rooney
Mara, Nightmare Alley is del Toro's most ambitious film to date, an
engrossing yet disturbing journey into the psyche of a tragic
swindler whose own nature seals his fate. This deluxe volume delves
into the creation of all aspects of the film through extensive
interviews with del Toro and his cast and crew, including writer
Kim Morgan, with whom he collaborated closely on the script. This
incisive commentary is illustrated with a broad range of striking
visuals from the production-including concept art and unit
photography-that illuminate the film's two distinct worlds: the
ramshackle life of the travelling carnival and the sophisticated
art deco trappings of 1940s Buffalo, New York.
