Reviews
Claire Danes, star of Homeland and winner of multiple Emmy awards:"Dan's writing is reflective of his directing style: sensitive, thoughtful, insightful, and searching. His account of the culture and process of episodic television is honest and edifying." John Landgraf, Chairman of FX Networks and FX Productions:"I've watched thousands of hours of television, but I can always recognize Dan's work because it is a cut above. If you want to understand what a director does, or would like to be a director, or already are a director and would like to get better at it -- then READ THIS BOOK." David Chase, creator and showrunner of The Sopranos:"Dan Attias has written a book I believe would make any director a better director. I wish I had had his book before I ever started." Amy Sherman Paladino, creator, co-showrunner, and frequent director of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel:"If you are interested in the process, in how it works, or should work, if you want to hear from someone who still finds the fun and the challenge in bringing the story to life, and who has skills up the wazoo, then this man is the one to pay attention to. I did. And it made me better." Nathan Lane, icon of the American stage and multiple Tony and Emmy award-winning actor:"Dan Attias has not only written an incredibly comprehensive guide to directing television, he's written a humanistic and personal memoir of the journey to find the truth through the best storytelling possible and capturing that on film. Speaking from personal experience, Dan is not just a great television director, he's a great director, period. You will love this book." Joe Weisberg and Joel Fields, co-showrunners of The Americans:"Dan Attias is one of the most talented directors working today, the guy you want directing your most important episode. He has written an essential manual for anyone who wants to understand the craft of television production and directing.", "Dan's writing is reflective of his directing style: sensitive, thoughtful, insightful, and searching. Reading his book I felt as considered and held by him as I did when he would direct me within a scene. His account of the culture and process of episodic television is honest and edifying; it can be used as a pragmatic tool for someone interested in the practice of directing, but also as an exploration into the art of storytelling in its most generous sense."Claire Danes, star of Homeland and winner of multiple Emmy awards: "I've watched thousands of episodes of great television, but I can always recognize Dan's work, because it is a cut above. So, if you want to understand what a director does -- and what makes the great directors great -- then READ THIS BOOK. Or, maybe you would like to be a director, or already are a director and would like to get better at it -- then READ THIS BOOK. Or, maybe you just love television and would enjoy a great series of stories about how it is actually made, stories that will entertain you and make you love TV even more -- then READ THIS BOOK. Finally, you may be interested in the arc of a wonderful career, a journey by a person who is not only supremely talented but also fundamentally decent, humble, empathetic, and has collaborated and conducted himself over the course of decades with ever more confidence and generosity while at the same time he was making some of the most wonderful episodes of television's Golden Era -- then READ THIS BOOK." John Landgraf, Chairman of FX Networks and FX Productions: "Dan Attias has written a book I believe would make any TV director a better director. I wish I had had his book before I ever started."David Chase, creator and showrunner of The Sopranos
