Postmodern Authors
(1991)Coppola, Lucas, Depalma, Spielberg and Scorsese
A non fiction book by Kenneth Von Gunden
The five directors studied here embody postmodernism-the erosion of the earlier 20th century distinction between "high culture" and the so-called mass or popular culture that had its beginnings in the 1950s and 1960s. The personal history and childhood interests of each director are studied, along with their apprenticeship in film school and early directorial efforts.
