The real thing

Anyone who wants to know the nitty-gritty of how movies are made by someone who's been there, done that, this is THE book. A fascinating, well written primer on the art and science of how those shadows we see on a screen are actally put together. People with even a casual interest in the subject will find this book well worth reading. A great combination of entertainment and information.
