Captures some of the creative muse involved in filmmaking. Based on some 60 interviews with a variety of filmmaking professionals, the focus here lies chiefly, though not exclusively, with the creation of the film Dead Poets Society . Interviews with actor Robin Williams and director Peter Weir provide personal insight and a concrete sense of how filmmaking is a collaborative effort. In so doing, the authors attain the sought after, but rarely achieved, behind-the-scenes feeling to their work. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
