"La delgada línea roja", de Terrence Malick, uno de los directores americanos más importantes de su generación, ha merecido consideración de clásico cinematográfico prácticamente desde el día de su estreno. Enseguida aparecieron monografias dedicadas a analizar su trascendencia en el cine belico contemporaneo, particularmente en el dedicado a la Segunda Guerra Mundial. En este libro se examina el caracter clasico del filme de una manera singular: a partir de los propios clasicos grecolatinos. Los resultados son muy originales: la pelicula de Malick presenta citas y temas (Homero, Sofocles, Virgilio, san Pablo?; o la musa, la naturaleza, el asedio, el retorno, la condicion de heroe, el infierno?) que cimentan la reinterpretacion que el director hace de la Tradicion Clasica y todos los matices de los que aparecen dotados los personajes. La comparacion con otras peliculas dedicadas a la batalla de Guadalcanal, con el largometraje coetaneo de Spielberg, "Salvar al soldado Ryan", o con la novela de Jones que inspira el relato, enriquece el analisis propuesto por el autor, que abarca ademas el conjunto de la filmografia de Malick, director que fue antes filosofo que cineasta.

Wilfrid Brambell was one of Britains most loved and complex character actors. As Albert Ladysmith Steptoe, the unscrupulous rag-and-bone man with questionable habits in Ray Galton and Alan Simpsons long-running Steptoe & Son, he quickly became a household name with co-star Harry H. Corbett. But despite scores of other successes in roles on stage, TV and film, Brambell died a sad and lonely man.Alongside fame and fortune, You Dirty Old Man! reveals how Brambell suffered unbelievable personal heartache, battling an inner turmoil that eventually drove him to drink as his marriage collapsed in the most deceitful circumstances imaginable. His torment led to a secretive life off camera where he did everything possible to stay out of the public eye.Featuring original interviews with film directors Richard Lester, Terence Davies and Tony Palmer, as well as recollections from his own family members, the family of Harry H. Corbett and those who worked alongside him, author David Clayton seeks to re-examine the legacy of a man whose loyal fanbase remains undiminished sixty years on from his heyday.

Forty years ago as a graduate student I wrote a book about Spaghetti Westerns, called 10,000 Ways to Die. Its an embarrassing tome: full of half-assed semiotics and other attenuated academic nonsense.Thirty years later I wrote an entirely new book with the same title, about the same subject, from a different perspective - that of a working film director. What interested me was what the filmmakers intended, how they did that shot, how the director felt when his film was recut by the distributor, and he was creatively and financially screwed.Now I have prepared a new edition of 10,000 Ways to Die. It reflects my changing thoughts about the Italian Western, which I still greatly admire. It includes corrections, additions, and new sections on films I changed my mind about, or hadnt seen - including Lina Wertmullers BELLE STAR - the only Italian Western directed by a woman.

Somewhere in the labyrinth of our memories are films that we have seen and cannot forget but frustratingly may never see again because they have mysteriously vanished from the public domain. They may be hidden away in a film studios vault, buried beneath the floorboards of a filmmakers home, imprisoned by some ancient legality, refused release at a directors whim or simply not optioned by a distributor.This book brings back to life 101 films that are entombed in a cinema cemetery and in so doing unearths a film noir masterpiece, a French classic, a Mastroianni feature comparable to Cinema Paradiso, a pioneering Independent film of the fifties, a Joan Crawford headliner, an amazing Nicholas Ray experimental feature, Italian comedies by Nichetti and lost gems by Widerberg, Hitchcock, Lang, Ford, Lubitsch, Litvak, Dmytryk, Kazan, Cacoyannis, Boetticher, Zinnemann, Ray, Huston and many more luminaries of the silver screen.No film is guaranteed a general release whether screened at Sundance or Cannes and though critics may acclaim them, audiences applaud them, too many disappear into oblivion. This book pays homage to those lost films that deserve to be exhibited beyond the screen of our mind.
