Beschreibung
It is 1980's Los Angeles. Alys, a wealthy young dilettante accepts the invitation of a stranger to "get you into pictures" and suddenly finds himself behind the movie screen in the black-and-white world of the Silents: a Hollywood precisely as it was in the 1920's where love is the only subject matter but passion can be expressed solely within the censor's strict limits: where neither love nor death can last beyond the moment when the director says "Print That. " Alys's love for the glamorous and elusive Moira Silver inevitably leads him to want to break out of this artificial world with her, back to garishly colourful Los Angeles. Screenplay. is a novel as tauntingly erotic as it is brilliantly imaginative-a mysterious and captivating novel that, while unique in itself, shares the magic of John Fowles's The Magus. and Nabokov's Pale Fire. Actor and writer Simon Callow has long been a huge fan of this writer - and in particular this book - and has written a fascinating Afterword. Callow has always longed to make a movie.
