DGA Quarterly - Fall 2019 ("The Conversations Issue") [cover: Martin Scorsese and Quentin Tarantino]

Los Angeles: Directors Guild of America, Inc.. Near Fine. 2019. (Vol. XV, No. 3). Magazine. [very slight wear at spine extremities, otherwise as new]. (color and B&W photographs, graphics, ads) Following its stated theme, this issue of the DGA's "craft journal" presents the transcripts of conversations between: Martin Scorsese and Quentin Tarantino, who "talk movie obsessions, director heroes, process and violence as catharsis"; sitcom veterans Mark Cendrowski and Pamela Fryman; Kasi Lemmons and Ed Zwick, on "The Weight of History," about "the responsibilities that come with fact-based historical dramas"; and Bo Burnham and Olivia Wilde, who "trade war stories on making their first features." Other articles include: a discussion of the importance of residuals to the financial health of the DGA's pension system; an article in which photographers-turned-directors discuss "how their still work informs their filmmaking"; an article on First Assistant Director Chris Castaldi; an examination of the work of director Hal Ashby, by Peter Tonguette; an appreciation by Bill Condon of Anthony Minghella's THE TALENTED MR. RIPLEY, base on the Patricia Highsmith novel; a look at the collaboration between director James Mangold and cinematographer Phedon Papamichael on FORD V. FERRARI; and a photo-essay about directors who have shot films on location in Mexico. .
