To Make a Film Is to Be Alive

“A filmmaker is a man like any other; and yet his life is not the same… This is, I think, a special way of being in contact with reality.”

Or so says Michelangelo Antonioni, the legendary filmmaker behind the stark landscapes and social alienation of Blow-up and L’Avventura. The book provides a filmmaker’s absorbing reflections and insights on his career. Through autobiographical sketches, confessions, interviews and conversations about arts, people and morale of times, this compelling book explores the director’s unique brand of narrative-defying cinema as well as the motivations and anxieties of the man behind the camera.

About the Author
Michelangelo  Antonioni

Michelangelo Antonioni, Cavaliere di Gran Croce OMRI (29 September 1912 – 30 July 2007) was an Italian film director, screenwriter, editor, and short story writer. Best known for his "trilogy on modernity and its discontents" - L'Avventura (1960), La Notte (1961), and Eclipse (1962) - Antonioni "redefined the concept of narrative cinema" and challenged traditional approaches to storytelling, realism, drama, and the world at large. He produced "enigmatic and intricate mood pieces" and rejected action in favor of contemplation, focusing on image and design over character and story. His films defined a "cinema of possibilities".
Antonioni received numerous awards and nominations throughout his career, including the Cannes Film Festival Jury Prize (1960, 1962), Palme d'Or (1966), and 35th Anniversary Prize (1982); the Venice Film Festival Silver Lion (1955), Golden Lion(1964), FIPRESCI Prize (1964, 1995), and Pietro Bianchi Award (1998); the Italian National Syndicate of Film Journalists Silver Ribbon eight times; and an honoraryAcademy Award in 1995.
