"From lowly beginnings in the film industry as a tea boy at Gaumont-British Studios, David Lean quickly became the most sought after editor in the business before moving behind the camera. His first taste of directing came with Noel Coward on the wartime classic In Which We Serve. It was the launch of a monumental directorial career. Fifteen further films followed, from This Happy Breed to A Passage to India, which among them garnered a phenomenal fifty-seven Academy Award nominations, winning twenty-eight. He twice received the award for best director; first for A Bridge on the River Kwai and then for a film that is still as popular as it was on its release, Lawrence of Arabia. David Lean was also responsible for launching many distinguished cinematic careers among them those of Alec Guinness, Peter O'Toole and Omar Sharif." In this account of David Lean's life and work, his wife, Sandra Lean, and Barry Chattington shed light on the many aspects of the director's personality. So often his films reflected his own character traits: his hopes, his fears and his contradictions. He was a complex and demanding man for whom cinema was all: fiercely loyal to his film "family" yet often estranged from his blood relations. With an outstanding collection of images that reveals so much about his life both on and off the film set, David Lean - An Intimate Portrait is an essential book for any fan of his films.
