From his first feature film, The Duellists, to his international
successes Alien, Blade Runner, Thelma and Louise, Black Hawk Down,
Gladiator, and American Gangster, Ridley Scott has directed some of
the most compelling films of the last 30 years. Apart from his work
as a film director, Scott has engaged in a vast range of
activities, including that as a designer, producer, film mogul, and
advertising executive. The Ridley Scott Encyclopedia is the first
book that focuses on all aspects of his work in a wide-ranging
career that spans nearly 50 years. The entries in this encyclopedia
focus on all aspects of his work and are divided into four
categories. The first focuses on Ridley Scott's work as a director,
encompassing his feature films from The Duellists to Body of Lies,
as well as his work in television, including commercials. The
second category focuses on the people who have been involved in
Scott's projects, including actors, directors, producers,
designers, writers and other creative personnel. The third focuses
on general thematic issues raised in Scott's work, such as gender
construction, political issues, and geographical locations. Finally
the encyclopedia incorporates entries on films by other directors
who have influenced Scott's approach to his work as a director or
producer. Each entry is followed by a bibliography of published
sources, both in print and online, making this the most
comprehensive reference on Scott's body of work.
