This retrospective on the career of Academy Award-winning
production designer Richard Sylbert takes readers behind the scenes
of some of the most influential films of the past fifty years. The
Manchurian Candidate, Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf, The Graduate,
Rosemary's Baby, Chinatown, Dick Tracy. The common factor behind
these diverse, visually ground-breaking cinematic masterpieces is
the work of legendary production designer Richard Sylbert. Basing
the book in part on the late designer's Hollywood memoirs, writer
Sylvia Townsend, with the participation of Sylbert's widow,
screenwriter Sharmagne Sylbert, has enhanced the production
designer's original manuscript with candid interviews from some of
his most famous collaborators, including Warren Beatty, Roman
Polanski, and Francis Ford Coppola. The result is a book that takes
readers behind the scenes of some of the most influential and
highly acclaimed films of the past fifty years. This is a portrait
of a highly driven, sometimes tempestuous visionary who wasn't
afraid to fight for the artistic integrity of the worlds he created
on screen. Movie lovers will find in-depth discussions of the
making of such modern classics as Reds, Carnal Knowledge, Shampoo,
and The Cotton Club. More than thirty illustrations capture
Sylbert's creative process from early sketches to completed sets
and locations.
