This book is a collected edition of Edward Dmytryk's Focal Press series which began with ON FILM EDITING, a concise explanation of the principles of editing, combined with industry examples. According to Film Quarterly, ON FILM EDITING is "the best book on its subject since Karel Reisz's path-breaking TECHNIQUE OF FILM EDITING many years ago." ON SCREEN DIRECTING, a Focal Press best-seller and second in the series, distills Dmytryk's lifetime of experience as a director into a dozen structured essays covering the process from manuscript selection to final viewing, with captivating anecdotes that illustrate specific aspects of the craft. ON SCREEN ACTING continues the description of filmmaking through a collaboration between Edward Dmytryk and his wife, actress Jean Porter Dmytryk. This lively dialogue reflects the interaction between director and actor, and details the role of actor in films and the industry. The book most recently published, ON SCREEN WRITING, begins this collection. Written in an informal, anecdotal style using script examples from Hollywood classics, it includes extensive coverage of adaptation, an area often overlooked in scriptwriting books. Of this book, Backstage says, "Edward Dmytryk expertly interprets the creative aspects of the craft and the practical rules for its mastery ON FILMMAKING is a fascinating and in-depth explanation of how feature films are made, with a wealth of detailed techniques entertainingly presented.
