Good behind-the-scenes view of the film

My copy of this screenplay diary is very nearly worn out! I have read it several times and have found it to be a good investment. Neil Jordan walks the reader through his feelings about making the film and includes some excellent black and white photos. He wrote that he has "never lost more sleep over the making of a film" than he did over _Michael Collins_. Indeed, it is easy to understand why. Jordan discusses his own reservations about taking on such a monumental task (as accurately capturing the truth behind an Irish hero) and he takes us along on his meetings with the actors. The screenplay of the film, including the list of actors and characters, is a neat read as well. If you are a die-hard fan of the movie, you will pick up on some subtle and not-so-subtle changes in the script. All things considered, this title would be a great investment for any fan of the film. If, on the other hand, you are simply looking for more information on one of the actors, the man behind the movie or the life of Neil Jordan, I would suggest you look elsewhere. This book is strictly concerned with the filmmaking process and would probably not be a good fit for any of those needs.
