“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”)
Join me in conversation about the filmmaker and his body of work, what we can expect from his new feature “Downsizing” and the making of my book based on 20 years covering Payne. The book makes a great resource for film buffs, critics, filmmakers, educators and students as well as more casual film fans who want a handy Payne primer and trivia goldmine.
This is the new edition from River Junction Press about the Oscar-winning filmmaker from Omaha. It features new content current to his “Nebraska” and “Downsizing” projects and the addition of a discussion guide and index. A perfect gift for yourself or the cinema lover in your life. Sells for $25.95. Copies will be available for purchase and signing.
Looking forward to signing your copy.
Also available at Barnes & Noble, Our Bookstore, via Amazon and for Kindle.

I am doing a book talk and signing at Indigo Bridge Books in Lincoln (Neb.) this Sunday, Oct. 28 at 3 p.m.
If you live in Lincoln, Neb. or are visiting this weekend, please note that I am doing a book talk and signing at Indigo Bridge Books and Cafe this Sunday, Oct. 28 at 3 p.m. I will be signing my new book, “Alexander Payne: His Journey in Film – A Reporter’s Perspective 1998-2012.” I will also have a few things to say about the book and Payne and his new film “Nebraska” and my years covering him. I will be happy to take questions. Stop by and chat a while about our favorite filmmaker. And hopefully you will have one or more books for me to sign.
Indigo is at 701 “P” Street, #102, in The Creamery Building, Lincoln, Neb.
