This book; beautifully illustrated with specially commissioned photography; is a celebration of UCLs unique collections; with leading academics from the university invited to select and write about an object each found inspiring. From a jar of moles to an Egyptian unguent spoon; a finger X-ray to some prehistoric cereal grains; their choices were often surprising; their responses always fascinating.

Really awesome book with great insight about David Fincher as an auteur. Straight to the point; covers all his movies upto Gone Girl (Gone Girl interview is not in this edition).1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. ElisaBy CustomerAn interesting book about Fincher as a director. Very precise and technical; yet absorbing.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Superb Series!By JanetI am really enjoying The Conversations with Filmmakers series. This compilation of interviews and anecdotes concerning David Fincher was extremely interesting. I found them to be easy reading; I like the ability to come in and out of the book at any point and not feel lost. The arrangement and format of the book lends itself really well to discussion; there are so many compelling avenues to pursue. Film and video devotees will love adding this series to their private collections.*I received my copy from NetGalley.com in exchange for an honest review.
