"A generous, well-researched book... Dowsing tells the whole sobering tale with grace." Simon Callow, The Guardian"A superb biography of Nicol Williamson. Thoroughly researched, very judicious on the films, and a sympathetic and sensitive appraisal of the man without ever being sentimental or sycophantic. A fine tribute to a remarkable talent and clearly a fascinating personality, it certainly made me want to re-view some of the movies, particularly The Bofors Gun and The Reckoning. An absorbing, mysterious tale; it reads almost like a novel in the way the narrative grips and holds you." Neil Sinyard, Senior Lecturer in Film Studies at the University of Hull and author of twenty books on film"This biography of Nicol Williamson really gets to the heart of the man and made me love him all over again. It''s not only informative but heart-breaking, and Martin Dowsing has done him proud." Paul Moriarty, actor and Nicol Williamson''s understudy in the Royal Shakespeare Company, 1974-75

La genial interpretación que hizo Marlon Brando de Stanley Kowalski, en Un tranvía llamado Deseo le convirtió en la estrella más carismática de la década de la posguerra. Como máximo exponente del método Stanislavski, Brando definio el estilo de una nueva ola de actores y, con su comportamiento inquieto e inconformista, se revelo como una figura emblematica para toda una generacion de jovenes rebeldes. Durante un lustro hubo una consonancia entre el idiosincratico Brando en su vida privada y el personaje en la pantalla de una serie de peliculas excepcionales (¡Viva Zapata!, Julio Cesar, La ley del silencio, Ellos y ellas). Durante los diecisiete años siguientes, su personalidad compleja y torturada solo se expreso realmente como era en El rostro impenetrable, en la que se dirigio a si mismo, aunque tambien cabe destacar sus actuaciones en La jauria humana y Reflejos en un ojo dorado. En ese periodo de tiempo se puso de moda declarar acabado quiza demasiado pronto al iconico protagonista de Salvaje. Reaparecio en 1972, y nos recordo que seguia siendo el mas grande, capaz de personificar con maestria insuperable a Don Vito Corleone en El padrino, a la que siguio su valiente decision de desnudar su cuerpo y su alma en El ultimo tango en Paris. Brando desaparecio realmente de las pantallas cuando los ultimos fotogramas de Apocalypse Now daban paso a los titulos de credito poco despues de que el aullido de Kurtz (¡El horror, el horror...!) se perdiera para siempre en el espeso

Werner Herzog (Grizzly Man) is one of the most revered and enigmatic filmmakers of our time, and Fitzcarraldo is one of his most honored and admired films. More than just Herzogs journal of the making of the monumental, problematical motion picture, which involved, among other things, major cast changes and reshoots, and the hauling (without the use of special effects) of a 360-ton steamship over a mountain , Conquest of the Useless is a work of art unto itself, an Amazonian fever dream that emerged from the delirium of the jungle. With fascinating observations about crew and playersincluding Herzogs lead, the somewhat demented internationally renowned star Klaus Kinskiand breathtaking insights into the filmmaking process that are uniquely Werner Herzog, Conquest of the Useless is an eye-opening look into the mind of a cinematic master.
