Besides writing this book review blog I also write screenplays, and when I need a little creative juice look for moviemaking books; in this case one about the highly interesting career of Gus Van Sant, by Katya Tylevich.
I have always been a fan of Van Sant, but learned a lot more about his style in this work, told largely in a series of interviews conducted by Tylevich. I was intrigued to learn that he picked different projects because he wanted to experiment with various styles of filmmaking. He also had more of an art background, that reflected heavily in his work (as seen in his photography throughout).
I really enjoyed reading about Van Sant's filmmaking thoughts and ideas and realized I have some catching up to do on his filmography.
I checked this out from the New Castle-Henry County Public Library in New Castle Indiana and read it quickly.
