Description

American filmmaker John Huston remains an enigmatic figure, years after his death. This collection of new essays explores various aspects of his life, including his films and literary adaptations. The book features fresh analyses of notable films such as Key Largo, The Asphalt Jungle, and Prizzi's Honor, alongside insightful studies of lesser-known works like In This Our Life and A Walk With Love and Death. Other topics include Huston's World War II documentary Let There Be Light and two a clef portraits of the "real" John Huston in The Way We Were and White Hunter, Black Heart. The book is supplemented by revealing interviews with John Huston's actress daughter Angelica Huston and film producer Wieland Schultz-Keil.
