Joseph H. Lewis : Overview, Interview, and Filmography Hardback
by Francis M. Nevins
Part of the The Scarecrow Filmmakers Series series
Hardback
- Information
Description
The first full-length account of the life and work of Joseph H.
Lewis, the noted director of films such as My Name is Julia Ross (1945) and The Halliday Brand (1957). Because most commentators and interviewers have focused on Lewis' contributions to film noir and particularly Gun Crazy and The Big Combo, Nevins tries to give equal time to Lewis' early B westerns and television series episodes, including episodes of The Rifleman and Gunsmoke that he directed at the end of his career. Nevins's narrative is interspersed with Lewis's own reflections on his life and career, adding a personal element that enlivens the text.
A detailed filmography includes Lewis's editorial work, feature films, and episodes of TV series.
