Brian DePalma | The Bedlam Files

CINEMA SPECULATION

Passionate and entertaining writing on cinema by the one and only Quentin Tarantino

Here, in the early days of 2021, is the latest edition of my annual Bedlam in Print overview

The director-novelist: it’s a rare combination, but it does exist

Yet another example of a book that seems fated to be known more for the movie made from it than the text itself

Oliver Stone’s reverence for THE DEMOLISHED MAN is evident in this, one of the most famous unfilmed screenplays in existence

This undated late 1970s screenplay is one of several never-filmed takes on Alfred Bester’s 1951 science fiction masterpiece THE DEMOLISHED

Speaking as one who quite literally grew up watching his films, I couldn’t help but gravitate toward this, Oliver Stone’s long-in-coming memoir

This irresistibly pulpy psycho-thriller is the first novel by film legend Brian De Palma (co-written with girlfriend Susan Lehman)

Welcome to the first installment of my “Year in Bedlam” end-of-the-year movie rankings.
