Good Time to Get Your Copy of the Alexander Payne Book

April 26, 2013 leoadambiga 2 comments

When Alexander Payne’s new film Nebraska was recently accepted into the main competiton at Cannes, it signaled this black and white, wide screen comedy is going to be a festival heavyweight. Payne is very likely to be lionized to a whole new level. Get ahead of the wave and buy your copy of the only book about the filmmaker, Alexander Payne: His Journey in Film – A Reporter’s Perspective 1998-2012. I’m the author of this comprehensive look at one of cinema’s most original talents. The book is a collection of my extensive coverage of the writer-director of The Descendants, Sideways, About Schmidt, Election and Citizen Ruth. With his new film Nebraska the two-time Oscar-winner and his film are sure to be nominated for a slew of awards. My book is available via my blog, leoadambiga.wordpress.com, or at AlexanderPayneTheBook.com. It’s also available on Amazon and BarnesandNoble.com and for Kindle and all reader devices.

The work-in-progress page is devoted to my acclaimed book about the Oscar-winning filmmaker and his work.

“This is without question the single best study of Alexander Payne’s films, as well as the filmmaker himself and his filmmaking process. In charting the first two decades of Payne’s remarkable career, Leo Adam Biga pieces together an indelible portrait of an independent American artist, and one that’s conveyed largely in the filmmaker’s own words. This is an invaluable contribution to film history and criticism – and a sheer pleasure to read as well.” –Thomas Schatz, Film scholar and author (The Genius of the System)

The book sells for $25.95.

Available through Barnes & Noble, on Amazon, for Kindle and at other bookstores and gift shops nationwide.
