Ebook About
The epic human drama behind the making of the five movies nominated for Best Picture in 1967-Guess Who's Coming to Dinner, The Graduate, In the Heat of the Night, Doctor Doolittle, and Bonnie and Clyde-and through them, the larger story of the cultural revolution that transformed Hollywood, and America, forever It's the mid-1960s, and westerns, war movies and blockbuster musicals-Mary Poppins, The Sound of Music-dominate the box office. The Hollywood studio system, with its cartels of talent and its production code, is hanging strong, or so it would seem. Meanwhile, Warren Beatty wonders why his career isn't blooming after the success of his debut in Splendor in the Grass; Mike Nichols wonders if he still has a career after breaking up with Elaine May; and even though Sidney Poitier has just made history by becoming the first black Best Actor winner, he's still feeling completely cut off from opportunities other than the same "noble black man" role. And a young actor named Dustin Hoffman struggles to find any work at all. By the Oscar ceremonies of the spring of 1968, when In the Heat of the Night wins the 1967 Academy Award for Best Picture, a cultural revolution has hit Hollywood with the force of a tsunami. The unprecedented violence and nihilism of fellow nominee Bonnie and Clyde has shocked old-guard reviewers but helped catapult Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway into counterculture stardom and made the movie one of the year's biggest box-office successes. Just as unprecedented has been the run of nominee The Graduate, which launched first-time director Mike Nichols into a long and brilliant career in filmmaking, to say nothing of what it did for Dustin Hoffman, Simon and Garfunkel, and a generation of young people who knew that whatever their future was, it wasn't in plastics. Sidney Poitier has reprised the noble-black-man role, brilliantly, not once but twice, in Guess Who's Coming to Dinner and In the Heat of the Night, movies that showed in different ways both how far America had come on the subject of race in 1967 and how far it still had to go. What City of Nets did for Hollywood in the 1940s and Easy Riders, Raging Bulls for the 1970s, Pictures at a Revolution does for Hollywood and the cultural revolution of the 1960s. As we follow the progress of these five movies, we see an entire industry change and struggle and collapse and grow-we see careers made and ruined, studios born and destroyed, and the landscape of possibility altered beyond all recognition. We see some outsized personalities staking the bets of their lives on a few films that became iconic works that defined the generation-and other outsized personalities making equally large wagers that didn't pan out at all. The product of extraordinary and unprecedented access to the principals of all five films, married to twenty years' worth of insight covering the film industry and a bewitching storyteller's gift, Mark Harris's Pictures at a Revolution is a bravura accomplishment, and a work that feels iconic itself.

Book Pictures at a Revolution: Five Movies and the Birth of the New Hollywood Review :



Pictures at a Revolution captures the essence of the “New Hollywood” with highly nuanced and detailed writing that captures the emergence of actors such as Dunaway and Hoffman, the insight and artistry of directors Nichols and Penn embodied in a dynamic that captures not only the turbulence of the 60’s but also the conflict in Hollywood with the old breed of Studio filmmaking versus the emerging spirit of independence manifested in four of the five films referenced, and in response to an audience that expected films and acting to reflect and capture the spirit and nature of the times.Harris delves deep into the evolution of each movie providing rich detail and perspective relative to casting, screenplays, direction, production, actors. The strength of Harris’ book is the narrative which is a tightly woven mosaic of each film’s conception leading to its final manifestation with an abundance of behind the scenes happenings in between, ensconced in Hollywood’s historical past and the uncertainty and frenetic energy of the 60’s.In my opinion, one of the best books not only about Hollywood, but one of the best books about the anatomy and physiology of filmmaking.
Not only informative but incredibly entertaining. I couldn't put the book down. Very rarely can one author cover the breadth of movie production madness that Harris does (not to mention, while telling the story of five productions from premise to release) and maintain a seamlessly enjoyable tale. Would very highly recommend to anyone.
