Frank Miller's Sin City : The Making of the Movie
Director Robert Rodriguez teams with comic book legend Frank Miller to bring the acclaimed comic book series to the screen.
A film noir updated for the digital age, Sin City is a fetishistically faithful big-screen rendition of Miller's hardboiled graphic novels. Film director Rodriguez was so intent on capturing the distinctive visual look of Miller's art that he insisted, against the objections of the Director's Guild of America, on the writer-artist getting co-director billing. An all-star cast, including Bruce Willis and Benicio Del Toro, was shot against a green screen and inserted into digitally created settings, which permitted exact fidelity to Miller's graphics. This attractively designed book publishes Rodriguez' screenplay adaptation, accompanied by corresponding comics panels and production shots to reveal how closely the film hews to its inspiration. Also featured are commentary by Rodriguez and Miller, interviews with cast and crew, conceptual designs and other artwork, and sections on costumes and the cars in the film. The moguls expect crowds in Kill Bill, if not Pulp Fiction, numbers, and many of those viewers will be the sort of obsessive, repeat-viewing fanatics who will seek out this hardcover geeks' guide.
