About This Item
Paris: Assouline, 2021. First Edition. Hardcover in slipcase. First Edition. New in publisher's shrinkwrap.
Publisher's description: Written and directed by Academy Award winner and Palme d'Or recipient Jane Campion, The Power of the Dog is a haunting western set in 1920s Montana, adapted from Thomas Savage's 1967 novel of the same name. With a star-studded cast featuring Benedict Cumberbatch, Jesse Plemons, Kirsten Dunst and Kodi Smit- McPhee, the story focuses on a charismatic rancher, Phil Burbank (Cumberbatch), who inspires fear and awe in those around him. When his brother brings home a new wife and her son, Phil torments them until he finds himself exposed to the possibility of love. The film earned Campion the Silver Lion award for Best Director at the Venice Film Festival.
This book offers an in-depth look at the making of the movie, including film stills, set photography and quotes from the cast and filmmakers. Every aspect of production and post-production is explored, from acquiring the book rights to writing the screenplay, from casting to finessing the score. The layers are peeled back to reveal how Campion and her team were able to create such a complete and believable world.
Founded in Paris in 1994 by Prosper and Martine Assouline, Assouline is the first luxury brand on culture. It began with the desire to create a new, contemporary style of book, using the couple's experienced eye for visually rich stories and compelling narratives.
Guided by their passion for knowledge, culture and travel, the Assoulines have since expanded their vision to 1,700 titles in three main collections, along with special editions and unique library accessories-a grand oeuvre of inspiring creations. Throughout the last quarter of a century, the brand has established a network of international boutiques in prominent locations across the globe. Assouline has also inaugurated a curated library service, working closely with clients to visualize, design, and develop bespoke, one-of-a-kind libraries.
304 pages. 280 illustrations. 31.3 x 26.9 x 5.8 cm. Fine in linen-covered boards and a Fine illustrated paper-covered slipcase with titles stamped in gilt.
Shipping billed at cost outside the US.
