read hitchcock by truffaut, easy riders raging bulls (brilliant), warren commission is the jfk assassination report is it?
the spanish thing could be good too if fitzcaraldos anything to go byRe-reading Gargantua and Pantagruel. Rabelais might come up again in an exam. It’s actually really good.
"Making Movies" by Sidney Lumet, is a classic and a must-read for everybody in this industry, regardless of their job. "The Writers Journey" by Christopher Vogler is another very good book on classical writing – I’ve only dipped in-and-out of it myself and must really finish it. Bought "Hitchcock" by Francois Truffaut, but have yet to read it…I also have it in audio-book if anyone wants it.

I must put that next on my reading list so. I am almost finished the book I am currently reading – a book that shall remain nameless for the sake of my impeccable reputation…www.seanbreathnach.com
