Ридли Скотт. Гений визуальных миров. От "Чужого" до "Марсианина"

GIFT EDITION Ridley Scott is a man of great contradictions. He studied with Francis Bacon and paints in oils to relax. He prefers the company of NASA scientists or medieval historians to the cream of Hollywood society. He creates exciting and spectacular blockbusters in which he talks about the existence of God and the further directions of human development. Scott is always fighting for his vision of the world on screen. His paintings - "Alien", "Blade Runner", "Gladiator", "Hannibal", "The Martian" and many others - set the boundaries of the fantastic and the real: crossing new continents and planets, overcoming the boundaries between legal and criminal, living and artificial , religious and scientific, internal and external. The director is sure that it is enough to dare a little or even make the audience flinch - and this will attract the attention of the audience. And in his long career, he almost never made a mistake. This book is a unique chronicle of the director's creative life, telling his journey from the first shootings of advertising to "The Martian". In addition to the history of the films, the inside contains a lot of archival material from the filming, director's commentary and funny stories from the cast and crew. 16+ Translator Pishkin A.
