Direction & Production Editorial Review

"On Directing Film" by David Mamet is a book that focuses on Mamet's style of directing, which some readers find to be too cut and dry, stripped down and cold, neglecting aesthetic and emotional aspects of storytelling. Although Mamet champions clarity in storytelling, his focus on words and story sometimes misses the tools of lighting and camera placement. The book is repetitive and sometimes controversial in its arguments. However, the book has some interesting ideas on approaching cuts and film language, and can be a useful guide for those interested in directing film.
