The generation of film-makers who define  contemporary movie-making - Danny Boyle, Kevin Macdonald (The Last  King of Scotland), Christopher Nolan (The Dark Knight), James  Marsh (Man on Wire), and Guillermo Del Toro (Pan's Labyrinth),  all acknowledge their debt to the work of Nicolas Roeg.  Roeg  began as a cameraman, working for such masters as Francois Truffaut and  David Lean. His explosive debut as a director with Performance,  established an approach to film-making that was unconventional and  ever-changing, creating works such as Don't Look Now, The Man Who  Fell to Earth, Bad Timing, Insignificance, and, more  recently, Puffball.  Having now reached eighty years of  age, Roeg has decided to pass on to the next generations, the wealth of  wisdom and experience he has garnered over fifty years of film-making.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49575446315281,"sku":"GOR005013340","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49729763541265,"sku":"NGR9780571264933","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50897279484177,"sku":"GOR011098710","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51523381625105,"sku":"GOR006889649","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51772917186833,"sku":"CIN057126493XG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/057126493X.jpg?v=1771499649"},{"product_id":"world-is-ever-changing-book-nicolas-roeg-9780571310838","title":"The World is Ever Changing","description":"\"There are constellations and stars shining within them, but for me none burned brighter than Nic Roeg...the films from Performance to Eureka are at least on a par with the giants of movie-making anywhere in the world...fierce, uncompromising, iconoclastic, dazzlingly original, he is British film's Picasso.\" (Danny Boyle).

The photographs - or \"postcards” as Doron describes them - were taken using a 15-dollar camera he picked up from Woolworths in Los Angeles, and they document the artist’s fascination with the dream-like world of fame, legends and celebrity. Through seven stories from three countries, each made personal by Doron’s introductions, we are invited to visit places where fiction meets reality: the Hollywood sign in Los Angeles, the fatal route James Dean took to Salinas, an Elvis impersonators contest in Tel Aviv, the famous Shepperton film studios in London, and the graves of countless film stars and modernday heroines from Marilyn Monroe and Marlene Dietrich to Princess Diana. Designed by Intro and with a forward by Nicolas Roeg, cinematographer and director of cult masterpieces such as Don’t Look Now and Performance, \u003ci\u003eEnd of Real\u003c\/i\u003e is Doron’s first project in book form.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e After a childhood filled with visits to the movies and with stories told to him by his mother about its stars, Itai Doron’s work is strongly influenced by cinema. Having worked as a visual artist using media as varied as photographs, photo-collages, video and audio-visual installations, in 2004 he wrote and directed his first short feature film, The Trouble with Thomas Cruise, starring horror movie legend Linda Hayden.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":50942696751377,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50942697013521,"sku":"GOR014136892","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52145438458129,"sku":"NLS9781904212072","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1904212077.jpg?v=1751061704"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-nicolas-roeg.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
