內容簡介

The American West, as we know it, is defined by the movies, and the Western is the oldest film genre. When the movies were born, it was not that long after Promontory Point and the Civil War, so those memories were still there in the minds of the very first movie audiences as they -watched The Great Train -Robbery. And the myth-making is as important as the brutal truths of history. As the reporter tells Jimmy -Stewart in Ford’s The Man Who Shot Liberty -Valance, "This is the West, sir. When the legend becomes fact, print the legend."

Rendered in rare, evocative tones reminiscent of Edward Sheriff Curtis’s immortal photographs, Western Portraits of Great Character Actors provides readers with a collection of stylized portraits that capture the allure and mystique of the Old West, complete with authentic costuming, weaponry and settings.

From the epic feature film to the TV series and serial, this coffee table book will put the story of character actors and the significance of their memorable roles into an entertaining -perspective.

The subjects include such popular, recognizable actors as Karl Malden, David Carradine, Denver Pyle, R.G. Arm-strong, L.Q. Jones, Horst Buchholz, Henry Silva, Ruta Lee, Morgan Woodward, Bo Hopkins, Clu Gulager and 72 others.

The market for this book will include lovers of classic -cinema, Western history aficionados, writers...

Carver also directed American action star Chuck Norris in An Eye for an Eye and Lone Wolf McQuade.

One of the most prolific and influential figures in the history of movies, Roger Corman sponsored several directors during the early parts of their careers, including Francis Ford Coppola, Peter Bogdanovich, Penelope Spheeris and Steve Carver. Corman has served as producer on hundreds of motion pictures. He has directed dozens of films himself, including the Westerns Five Guns West and Gunslinger. In 2009, he received an Honorary Award from the Academy of -Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for "his unparalleled ability to nurture-aspiring filmmakers."
