Retake Please: Filming Western Approaches
Pat Jackson
This fascinating memoir is a unique contribution to the history of film and cinema. At its center is the story of the making of the British film classic Western Approaches, the first story documentary in Technicolor, totally enacted by amateurs. It was nominated for an Oscar in the category "Best Film from any Source" and has influenced and inspired film-making to this day. It was acclaimed a masterpiece when it was released in December 1944 and fifty years later Philip French wrote in The Observer: "It remains a milestone in our cinema and an exciting, vibrant cinematic experience."
"Liverpool University Press deserves huge credit for publishing this book... The book has been handsomely produced with some fine stills and ought to find its way into the library of any institution that teaches about British cinema."?Viewfinder
