Summary
A behind-the-scenes memoir about taking risks and maintaining credibility in today's independent film arena, written by the woman producer of Boys Don't Cry and Far from Heaven, describes her first two decades in the industry, her controversial decisions, and her observations about the clash between the film worlds of New York and Hollywood.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: (Limelight). A Killer Life is a book about just that: the killer life of an alternative film producer who's forged her own path of success between the disparate pillars of art and commerce. Strong, steady, creative, loyal, funny, artistic, and doggedly determined to produce films that have meaning and substance and staying power in the pantheon of great cinema, Christine Vachon, a member of the Academy and born and bred on the realistic, unforgiving streets of New York City, is one of the most important people working behind the scenes in the film industry today. How did she get there? Why do directors love her? What does it take to produce great movies? What happened on the set of Kids ? These answers and more are in her book!
