/lit/ - Literature

How about books on filmmakers? This is perhaps my favourite book on a filmmaker, it's magnificent. If you're a fan, then this is the book for you? If you're not a fan then what the fuck is wrong with you? Go watch some of his films and then read this. Don't do it in the opposite order, you need to have seen his films to appreciate this book, I feel.

Anyway, anyone know any good books on DePalma? Something siding towards more academic analyses as opposed to pop-reviews...

What are your favourite books *on* film, /lit/?

Pic related is mine. If you're at all interested in Ferrara (and you should be), give it a look.
