One of the most versatile Hollywood filmmmakers, Robert Wise had a
number of renowned films under his directorial belt, including The
Day The Earth Stood Still, West Side Story, The Sound of Music, and
Star Trek: The Motion Picture. Nonetheless, Wise remains a rarely
studied Hollywood figure--while many filmgoers know and love his
films, few recognize his name. This book, the first in-depth
analysis of Wise's cinematic achievement, uncovers the elements
linking the director's diverse cinematic subjects and examines in
detail the manifold ways in which Wise explored the tensions
between individuals and their societies. His films are seen from a
new and more complex perspective, one which will heighten the
viewer's appreciation for the range and depth of Wise's overall
body of work.
