Down and Dirty Pictures Audiobook (Free)

DOWN AND DIRTY PICTURES chronicles the rise of indie filmmakers and of the twin motors – the Sundance Film Event and Miramax Films – which have powered them. Peter Biskind profiles the people who got the independent motion from obscurity to the Oscars, especially Sundance founder Robert Redford and Harvey Weinstein, who with his sibling, Bob, produced Miramax an indie powerhouse. Candid, penetrating and controversial, SMART PICTURES is crucial – read for anybody thinking about the film world. “In SMART PICTURES, Biskind takes on the movie sector from the 1990s and once again gets the tale….Peter Biskind catches his era while John Dunne did that of the Zanucks.” Frank Wealthy, The New York Situations “Dishy, teeming, superbly reported…filled with energetic inside anecdotes…[a] juicy and fascinating expose.” – Entertainment Weekly
