Drawing Directors: Volume II (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798988600541)

Fifty years. Countless sketches. One director's illustrated love letter to the filmmakers who shaped cinema.

From Grease to The Blue Lagoon, director Randal Kleiser has left his mark on the screen. But behind the camera, he's been quietly sketching portraits of the legends he's met along the way-Scorsese, Spielberg, Coppola, and many more.

Now, in this charming and visually rich book, Kleiser shares a curated collection of his hand-drawn portraits, each accompanied by a short, entertaining write-up. Sometimes anecdotal, sometimes insightful, always personal-these mini-profiles offer a peek into the lives and work of cinema's most iconic directors, as seen through the eyes of a fellow filmmaker.

Drawing Directors is part film history, part art book, and part backstage pass to Hollywood's inner circle.
