Steve Schapiro Orden de los libros (cronológico)

From Funny Girl to A Star Is Born, the meteoric rise of Barbra Streisand. In 1970 Barbra Streisand published a story in Life magazine titled Who Am I Anyway? It was the very question two leading photojournalists of the day, Steve Schapiro and Lawrence Schiller, were also asking as they photographed her during her first five years in Hollywood, working to get beneath the veneer and capture the real Barbra. Brimming with photographs, stories, and behind-the-scenes shots from Schapiro and Schiller, this collection features all the best movies of Streisand's first Hollywood decade: Funny Girl, On a Clear Day You Can See Forever, The Way We Were, The Owl and the Pussycat, Up the Sandbox, Funny Lady, and A Star Is Born. So too are her loves, directors, confidants, and costars Elliott Gould, William Wyler, Sydney Pollack, Vincente Minnelli, Cis Corman, Omar Sharif, Kris Kristofferson, and, of course, Robert Redford. Through it all, a picture emerges not of a singer who could act, but of an actress who could sing, write, direct, dance, and do just about anything she put her mind to.

On set, on the road, and in the studio, photographers Steve Schapiro and Lawrence Schiller capture Barbra Streisand as her Hollywood star rises. Unveiling rare and seminal moments from the darling of Broadway’s life and work, Streisand is revealed to be more than any single talent—not just a singer, dancer, or actor—but rather a consummate...

Martin Scorseses Taxi Driver gilt seit langem als Meilenstein der Filmgeschichte, und Robert De Niros Darstellung eines schießwütigen Psychopathen mit Irokesenschnitt wird von vielen als eine der größten schauspielerischen Leistungen aller Zeiten angesehen. Die Zeitschrift Time führt den Film in ihrer Liste der 100 bedeutendsten Filme und schreibt: „Scorseses filmische Ausdruckskraft überwältigt mit der Zeit immer mehr.“ Steve Schapiro – dessen Aufnahmen bereits in TASCHENs Godfather Family Album zu sehen waren – begleitete damals die Dreharbeiten von Taxi Driver im Auftrag amerikanischer Zeitschriften und hat die intensivsten und brutalsten Momente des Films aus seiner privilegierten Perspektive hinter den Kulissen festgehalten. Dieses Buch präsentiert viele bislang unbekannte Fotos aus Schapiros Privatarchiv und zeichnet so das packende Porträt eines sozial vereinsamten Revolverhelden im zornigen Klima der Nach-Vietnam-Ära. Mit einem Vorwort von Martin Scorsese und zahlreichen historischen Texten und Interviews mit Scorsese, Drehbuchautor Paul Schrader und Robert De Niro. Nach der limitierten Collector’s Edition nun als TASCHEN-Standardausgabe.
