Description

Stone himself serves as guide to this no-holds-barred retrospectivea€"an extremely candid and comprehensive monograph of the renowned and controversial writer, director, and cinematic historian in interview form.

Over the course of five years,A Academy Award-winning filmmaker Oliver StoneA (Midnight Express,A Scarface,A Platoon,A JFK,A Natural Born Killers,A Snowden)A andA New York TimesA bestselling author Matt Zoller SeitzA (The Wes Anderson Collection) discussed, debated, and deconstructed the arc of Stone's outspoken, controversial life and career with extraordinary candor.A This book collects those conversations for the first time, including anecdotes about Stone's childhood, Vietnam, his struggles with post-traumatic stress disorder, and his continual struggle to reinvent himself as an artist. Critical commentary from Seitz on each of Stone's films is joined byA originalA essays from filmmaker Ramin Bahrani; writer, editor, and educator Kiese Laymon; writer and actor Jim Beaver; and film critics Walter Chaw, Michael Guarnieri, Kim Morgan, and Alissa Wilkinson.A

At once a complex analysis of a master directors vision and a painfully honest critical biography in widescreen technicolor,A The Oliver Stone ExperienceA is as daring, intense, and provocative as Stones filmsa€"it's an Oliver Stone movie about Oliver Stone, in the form of a book.

Both this book and Stones highly anticipated film,A Snowden, will be released in September 2016 toA coincide with Stones seventieth birthdayA (September 15, 1946).

Also available from Matt Zoller Seitz:A Mad Men Carousel,A The Wes Anderson Collection: Bad Dads,A The Wes Anderson Collection: The Grand Budapest Hotel, andA The Wes Anderson Collection.
