{"product_id":"liv-ullmann-robert-emmet-long-9781578068241","title":"LIV Ullmann: Interviews","description":"Liv Ullmann (b. 1938) has played many roles over the course of her long life: actress, mother, activist, author, and director. Her lead performances in such Ingmar Bergman classics as \u003ci\u003ePersona\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eScenes from a Marriage\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eCries and Whispers\u003c\/i\u003e kept her in close proximity to crafts involved in screenwriting, film direction, and production. In 1992, Ullmann directed her first film \u003ci\u003eSofie\u003c\/i\u003e and, with the quick succession of such recent masterpieces as \u003ci\u003ePrivate Confessions\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eKristin Lavransdatter\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eFaithless\u003c\/i\u003e, Ullmann has emerged as one of the most challenging, startling filmmakers working today. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eTracing her artistic evolution, \u003ci\u003eLiv Ullmann: Interviews\u003c\/i\u003e reveals how her acting and her personal life have shaped her filmmaking. She also does not shy away from exploring her complicated relationship with Bergman. Ullmann candidly discusses how Bergman's work--he wrote the screenplays for \u003ci\u003ePrivate Confessions\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eFaithless\u003c\/i\u003e--has influenced her own, but she also points out the ways in which she has diverged from his cinematic and moral vision. She talks about her feminist activism, her interest in Jewish culture, and her work as a UNICEF goodwill ambassador, and how all of these experiences have affected her filmmaking. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe volume features interviews and profiles from the early 1970s through 2004 and closes with a long interview conducted by the editor specifically for this volume. \u003ci\u003eLiv Ullmann: Interviews\u003c\/i\u003e provides an unusually intimate look at how a major filmmaker has developed her craft, both in front of and behind the camera.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Robert Emmet Long\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 157806824X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781578068241\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University Press of Mississippi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 229\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.82lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.94h x 5.94w x 0.76d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2006 pg. 80","brand":"Robert Emmet Long","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48850369511679,"sku":"9781578068241","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/liv-ullmann-robert-emmet-long-9781578068241","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
