Ever wonder (or been asked) what it's like to work on a movie? The eight-day weeks that stretch into endless months, wrapped in a sweaty mix of challenge, excitement, anxiety, danger...to say nothing of boredom, partying, sex, maybe even a little fighting. Well, this is the book for you. "Pain is temporary. Film is forever!" John Milius "Nobody is gonna hit as hard as life, but it ain't how hard you can hit. It's how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. It's how much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done." Rocky Balboa "Filmmaking is the ultimate team sport." Michael Keaton Steve Nicolaides line-produced the films Boyz N The Hood, The Princess Bride, School of Rock, A Few Good Men, When Harry Met Sally, Poetic Justice, Shaft, Misery, and Nacho Libre.
