| Publisher Description: Krzysztof Kieslowski (1941 - 1996) is widely recognized as one of the greatest filmmakers of the latter half of the twentieth century. Beginning as a documentarian who took on controversial subjects in communist Poland in the 1960's and 70's, Kieslowski gained an international reputation with his later narrative films The Double Life of Veronique and the Three Colors trilogy (Blue, White, and Red). He also made the Decalogue, a celebrated series for Polish television. The first comprehensive analysis of Kieslowski's entire body of work to be published in English, Annette Insdorf's book still stands as the best introduction to a uniquely gifted artist. |
