    It's an incredibly clear, honest, and precise discussion of the films Lumet made over the course of his career. There are many pearls of wisdom about directing and filmmaking in the book. It breaks down the different problems Lumet had in making films, and tells how he solved them.

    The Writer's Journey

    Their words

    It's the Bible for screenwriters. I think it's the best book on how to write a screenplay ever written. It helped me get through so many roadblocks as a writer.

    Easy Riders, Raging Bulls

    Their words

    This is an incredibly delicious read—just a great, great account of that era from Easy Rider ('69) through the mid-'70s. It's the story of all those great filmmakers—my icons—Scorsese, Coppola, Friedkin, and Bogdanovich.

    The Ragman's Son

    Their words

    I read this one in the early '90s when I first got out to Hollywood. My mentor Stuart Rosenberg, who directed Cool Hand Luke, suggested it. It's basically Kirk Douglas's story of coming from nothing—he was a ragman's son—and achieving the American dream through the Hollywood movie system.

    Hitchcock

    Their words

    It's an amazing guide to Hitchcock's thought process. Truffaut, being a fantastic filmmaker himself, was able to ask really profound, informed questions that really got to the heart of filmmaking.

What is a korrent?

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at korrents.com.

Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said. The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who else holds it.

Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post

Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.

The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter, especially about tone.

Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked article and a belief on korrents.com are left in their original language.
