Fifty years. Countless sketches. One director’s illustrated love letter to the filmmakers who shaped cinema.
From Grease to The Blue Lagoon, director Randal Kleiser has left his mark on the screen. But behind the camera, he’s been quietly sketching portraits of the legends he’s met along the way: Scorsese, Spielberg, Coppola, and many more.
Now, in this charming and visually rich book, Kleiser shares a curated collection of his hand-drawn portraits, each accompanied by a short, entertaining write-up. Sometimes anecdotal, sometimes insightful, always personal; these mini-profiles offer a peek into the lives and work of cinema’s most iconic directors, as seen through the eyes of a fellow filmmaker.
Drawing Directors is part film history, part art book, and part backstage pass to Hollywood’s inner circle.
Perfect for fans of:
Movie buffs and film students
Art lovers and illustrators
Readers who enjoy quirky memoirs and creative nonfiction
Includes:
100+ original hand-drawn portraits
Personal stories and behind-the-scenes moments
Surprising facts, famous quotes, and a touch of humor
Whether you’re a cinephile, a doodler, or just love a good Hollywood story, this book is your front-row seat to the directors who shaped our screens and the artist who drew them from the shadows.
