About this book✨
This text is a condensed volume of Cesare Zavattini's journals, culminating in a narrative of his life as an Italian screenwriter and one of the first theorists of the Neorealist movement in Italian cinema. Translated into English by William Weaver, this volume is "essentially a verbal self-portrait," giving readers a "panoramic, behind-the-scenes view of movie-making in Europe."

Condition✨
Published in 1970, this edition is used but is still in good condition. The original dust jacket shows some signs of wear. The text is illustrated with photographic prints of various film stills. Overall, it's a great and rare book for a film buff!
