Overview

James Cameron is the most successful filmmaker of all time by some margin, which is something we tend to take for granted. The question at the heart of the book isn't only how this came about, but what is it about Cameron that makes him such a universal storyteller?

Cinema has had its godlike directors, lifting it up into new spaces, but he is their Zeus--the man who made the biggest film of all time then topped that by making the next biggest film of all time.

This book encapsulates not only the magnitude of James Cameron as a filmmaker but the minutiae too - the incredible stories of an artist whose commitment to the medium knows few bounds. The tales behind the films are as epic as the films themselves. The incredible making of The Abyss, much of it shot submerged in a decommissioned nuclear plant, could fill a book on its own. This is a film-by-film biography of the most popular director of all time.
