In the Scene: Jane Campion
About This Book
A comprehensive overview of the director Jane Campion and her work.
Campion is one of the few women film-makers working today who has managed to create a unique body of work. A true independent film-maker, she has attracted many 'A' List Hollywood actors to appear in her films.
Who else but Campion could have convinced a tattooed Harvey Keitel to run buck-naked through the New Zealand landscape in The Piano, or for the multi award-winning Kate Winslet to pee down her legs in the middle of the desert in Holy Smoke?
Campion is also an outspoken champion in recent debates about the lack of women in senior creative positions within the film industry.
This book covers Jane Campion's remarkable career from her Palme d'Or winning debut short film Peel to her recent return to television with the Top of the Lake series, reflecting on the influence of her study in anthropology as well as her formative years growing up in New Zealand.
