In 1994, the iconic independent German filmmaker Wim Wenders agreed to serve as co-director with the iconic Italian filmmaker Michelangelo Antonioni, to make Antonioni's last film, Beyond the Clouds. Antonioni could no longer speak, owing to a stroke. But his intellect and talent remained intact. The challenge for Wenders was to assist him in applying that talent to the complex tasks of creating and directing his film. Wenders writes of his experience in this intimate, frank, and fascinating first-person account. What is especially touching is Wenders' obvious respect and reverence for the great Antonioni, and his patience in dealing with the many communication problems inherent in such a joint effort. The account is chronological, presenting detailed behind-the-scenes activities and difficulties. The work is illustrated with rarely seen photos from the sets, depicting the actors in their roles and in consultation with the two directors. This book will fascinate those who love cinema and have a special interest in how films are made and how great directors work. It is also the story of one great artist's respect for another great artist.
