Went to see GONE GIRL for a second time and am even further convinced that it is (a) one of the greatest American films ever made; and (b) the sharpest dissection of a troubled marriage since the heydey of Ingmar Bergman. With that in mind, I'm posting a link to a review I wrote of the book INGMAR BERGMAN, CINEMATIC PHILOSOPHER; read it HERE. #ingmarbergman #americancinematographer #bookreviews #gonegirl #davidfincher

Here's a piece I wrote on the late, great Gary Graver and his posthumously published memoir of working with Orson Welles. Graver was a hero to many filmmakers, including my TROUBLE WITH THE TRUTH cinematographer Roberto Correa, who worked with Gary on many projects. Read the piece HERE. #garygraver #orsonwelles #robertocorrea #americancinematographer #bookreviews

Here's a piece I wrote on Alain Silver and James Ursini's superb Roger Corman tome for American Cinematographer's old book review column. Read HERE before starting your AIP Netflix binge... #rogercorman #americancinematographer #bookreviews #alainsilver #jamesursini

And here's another one from the AC book review files, and another one on Orson Welles: this time out I bow at the feet of the critic I revere above any other, Jonathan Rosenbaum, and praise his essential tome on a director I think is STILL underrated, in spite of having been declared the author of the greatest American film ever made. Read the review HERE and then get Rosenbaum's book pronto! #orsonwelles #jonathanrosenbaum #discoveringorsonwelles #americancinematographer #bo

From the now defunct book review column I used to have over at American Cinematographer, here's my piece on Joseph McBride's extraordinary WHATEVER HAPPENED TO ORSON WELLES?, a passionately argued and thoroughly researched volume on one of the greatest directors who ever walked the earth. Read it HERE. #orsonwelles #josephmcbride #whateverhappenedtoorsonwelles #americancinematographer #bookreviews
