Roman Polanski wrote and directed violent and disturbing films, he always opted for difficult solutions, he always got what he wanted: yet his life is marked by misunderstandings, disappointments, bitterness, struggles, worries, elements that he pours into this shameless autobiography with his usual violence. But more than his life, what these pages reveal to us is an incredibly torn world like that of cinema, where they draft famous characters, destined for fame, but where, more than ever, everything seems built on sand, between weak moral contours; a world where everything is in doubt, where calculation and improvisation intersect and encrust, where it is even difficult to look each other in the face. Autobiography or novel, it doesn't even matter anymore: it's always a thriller, a ruthless game of intrigue, between the spicy, the ironic and the perverse, a climate in which Polanski's genius seems to find all its strength to explode.Roman Polanski He was born in Paris in 1933. A Polish Jew who had fortunately escaped the Nazi extermination camps, he studied directing at the state film school in Lodz. After receiving various awards with short films, he made his feature film debut in 1962 with Knife in the Water. Repulsion (1965), Cul-de-sac (1966), Please Don't Bite Me on the Neck (1967) established him as an internationally renowned director, even before the great success of Rosemary's Baby (1968). Having left Poland, he is now divided between Hollywood and Paris. Other important films include Macbeth (1971), What? (1972), Chinatown (1974), Tess (1978).Description(scroll down for the English description)Conditions exactly as pictured. Signs of wear, imperfections and small scratches on dust jacket.
