- Summary:
-
"Hollywood thrives on shoot outs - that series of standoffs, skirmishes, and power struggles that mark every stage of the filmmaking process. Whether it's a director insisting on a final cut, a star demanding a bigger trailer, a producer holding the line on a budget, or a grip with a gripe, the world of moviemaking is fraught with confrontation and conflict. In the midst of the chaos, creativity struggles with commerce. Yet somehow, a few flickering images make it to the silver screen to enthrall millions." "Shoot Out is more than a recounting of clashing egos and infamous battles. In the hands of two of the entertainment industry's best-known pundits, Peter Bart and Peter Guber, the story of how and why a film gets made is told with rare insight, intelligence, and candor."--BOOK JACKET.
