This book is a really comprehensive (maybe a bit too comprehensive!) work on PG's films. It is divided in tidy parts, one part for one feature. There are a few omissions like, PG's exhibitions and more in-depth review of his earlier, more experimental films but the book is truly worthwhile to read as it is. Steinmetz's writings are objective and rewarding. Greenaway's writings, which might be called some kind of background information on the films, are very instructive and thought-provoking. The books biggest plus may be the high quality images from the films and of PG's drawings (which probably serve as personal story-boards). Highly recommended.
