For years Philip K, Dicks’ sci-fi novel: We Can Remember It For You Wholesale, languished on the back-burners of Hollywood producers’ desks until finally in 1990 the book was released as the big budget science fiction film: Total Recall, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger as the main character.
In author Simon Braund’s and Titan Books’ new oversize hardbound book: Total Recall The Official Story Of The Film, readers will learn how the blockbuster, smash film went from concept to the massive Silver Screen hit it would become.
A beautiful slip/dust cover with a full-color painting of the film’s main characters protects the hardbound book with its semi-gloss interior pages that make the photos and art pop.
Follow the progress of the film beginning with concept sketches and storyboards, script tweaks and changes, set and costume designs, cast selection, location shots, special practical and digital effects and much more.
Full-color and black white photos both in front and behind the camera are shown as well as concept sketches, directional decisions and film production.
Cast and crew offer insights about the film and ultimately once all the film elements were cobbled together the film was released to the viewing pubic where it became a huge success and cult classic.
Total Call was the film that bumped up the prestige of certain actors, premiered others and propelled the director to the top tier.
It amuses me when people say if life is ever discovered on another planet it proves that God does not exist. Actually it proves that he does exist. Who says life is relegated to just Earth?
Psalms 37:4 - Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
