This book provides a backstage pass to some of the most famous sets in film history through the stunning photographs of acclaimed documentary photographer, Mary Ellen Mark. Over the last forty years, Mark has been given unprecedented access behind the scenes to make beautiful, candid pictures of actors and actresses, such as Marlon Brando, Catherine Deneuve, Jack Nicholson, Cate Blanchett, and Johnny Depp, as well as some of the world's most celebrated directors including Federico Fellini, Francis Ford Coppola, and Tim Burton. Mark's fascinating photographs provide a rare glimpse of these artists in unguarded moments - between takes, in rehearsal, and during filming. They offer insight into the making of such legendary productions as Apocalypse Now and One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, as well as recent Oscar winners Moulin Rouge, Babel, and Sweeney Todd.
