Rating:
Summary: The Inside Scoop
Review: This book is the closest thing to actually being there whilethe film was made. Parisi's exclusive access to the set and Cameronpermits an over the shoulder view describing details and nuances that went into making a movie of epic proportions. Many facets of directing are not generally known and we are made aware of the struggle and persistence to get things done. Thus we have insight into the genius of Cameron and respect for the author's ability to translate the enormity of making this masterpiece. I enjoyed being a fly on the wall thanks to Parisi's book.

Summary: Very good read.
Review: Very well done; gives you a better idea for what it took than any of the articles published; gives you an idea of the fights and the struggles and it really gets a lot deeper and a lot more detailed than any of the articles ever have. There are a few glaring spelling errors, though.
