One artist's vision is the single most prominent force behind the scenes: the director. The Essential Directors illuminates the unseen forces behind some of the most notable screen triumphs from the aesthetic peak of silent cinema through the New Hollywood of the 1970s. Considering each artist's influence on the medium, cultural impact, and degree of achievement, Turner Classic Movies presents a compendium of Hollywood's most influential filmmakers, with profiles offering history and insight on the filmmaker's narrative style, unique touches, contributions to the medium, key films, and distinctive movie moments to watch for. The work of these game-changing artists is illustrated throughout by more than 200 full-color and black-and-white photographs. 0aMotion picture producers and directorszUnited StatesvBiography. 4aDirectores y productores de cine zEstados Unidos vBiografías 0aMotion picture producers and directorszUnited StatesxHistoryy20th century. 4aProductores y directores de cinezEstados Unidos xHistoria ySiglo XX 0aMotion picture industryzUnited StatesxHistoryy20th century. 4aIndustria cinematográfica xHistoria zEstados Unidos 1 aBogdanovich, Peter, d1939-2022ewriter of foreword1 aStewart, Jacqueline Najuma, d1970- ewriter of foreword
