With extensive sections on pre-production, production and post-production, this is the one and only book that goes deep behind the camera to recount the very essence of how this film was created. Beginning with introductions by Charles Frazier and Anthony Minghella written exclusively for this book, the pages continue with in-depth interviews with all the filmmakers, strrting with the producers, Sydney Pollack, Bill Horberg, Albert Berger and Ron Yerxa, who talk about their desire to make this movie and the challenges they faced in getting the process started. Dante Ferretti, the five-time Oscar®-nominated production designer, tells us how he managed to build two authentic Civil War towns in the forests of Eastern Europe, while Ann Roth discusses how she defines character through her costume design.
Excerpts from the Charles Frazier novel and the Anthony Minghella screenplay are also a part of this amazing book, which is illustrated extensively throughout. An added feature is a stunning 32-page portfolio of behind-the-scenes photographs shot on set in Romania by famed photographer Brigitte Lacombe.
Cold Mountain: The Journey From Book to Film is currently available from most major book store chains and specialty book shops everywhere.
