This work examines director DePalma's initial involvement with the independent filmmaking wave in the sixties, when he made his first feature film, the off-beat "Wedding Party", starring Robert De Niro and Jill Clayburgh. After directing several other small budget films, De Palma warily left the east coast for his first sparring match with a major studio, Warner Brothers. The book contains photographs, a filmography, a bibliography, and an index. This copy is clean and solid. SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR, inscribed on the FFEP.
