John Bleasdale talks to Paul Cronin about his books on Werner Herzog and Abbas Kiarostami and his work on Alexander MacKendrick. We also talk story structure, the history of the Faber Film Books and screenwriting. In many ways this becomes a much broader conversation and encompasses much about storytelling and what makes a film a film.
Check out Paul's website here
His recommended book is Amos Vogel's Film as Subversive Art and Alexander McKendrick's On Filmmaking.
