Take One, Action! takes you behind the scenes of swordplay in film
- written by professional swordsman and film director Andy
Wilkinson who has appeared in over seventy-three films, including
many Hollywood blockbusters. Part memoir, part film and swordplay
manual, this is a must read for all aspiring actors, swordsmen,
fight choreographers and film directors. It will also appeal to
theatre, film and fencing students, entertainment historians and
those who thirst for an insight into the world of swordsmen and the
art of making movies. It also incorporates intriguing nuggets of
information from both swordplay and film worlds, such as: Why do
spiral staircases rise clockwise? Which Hollywood star was a
British Army fencing champion? Where did the term slapstick
originate? With advice, anecdotes, a valuable guide to fencing
terminology and illustrated with photos, this is an unusual guide
to a greatly misunderstood art.
