The Godfather Family Album, Art Edition B - Reviews

Page [1] [2] [3]
"Die 444 Seiten zeigen alle Ikonen aus Francis Ford Coppolas Godfather-Trilogie: Marlon Brando, Diane Keaton, Al Pacino usw. Interviews, Hintergrundberichte, und dann hat Steve Schapiro, edler Erschaffer des limitierten Godfather Family Album das Ding auch noch mit seinem Schnörkel versehen ... Good value."

"TASCHEN's new, super-limited book documents the making of what I would argue is one of the best film series ever (the first two anyway). Each of the 100 "art edition" copies include over 400 never-before-seen images from Steve Schapiro as well as an 11x14 print (see below) signed by Schapiro himself. 444 pages full of interviews, essays and the moments that defined some of the best lines and images in film history. Only $1,800, so get two."

"Cet album de famille pas comme les autres vous entraîne dans l'univers de Francis Ford Coppola: la découverte de l'envers du décor de la plus grande saga mafieuse de tous les temps, vu par le regard du photographe de plateau Steve Schapiro. Superbe édition du making-of de la trilogie "Le Parrain". Quatre cents pages de photos inédites: Marlon Brando, Al Pacino, Robert de Niro, Robert Duvall, James Caan, Diane Keaton."

“Uma oferta irrecusable. Steve Schapiro teve uma sorte dos diabos: a oportunidade de assitir as filmagens da melhor trilogia de sempre, O Padrinho. E, no processo, fotografar alguns dos melhores actores de Hollywood enguanto estes compunham papéis memoráveis. O resultado pode agora ser visto pela primeira vez no livro The Godfather family Album.”

„Fotograf Steve Schapiro begleitete die Dreharbeiten aller drei Teile und stellte für diesen Band – neben den legendären Standfotos der Schauspieler – eine Vielzahl bisher unveröffentlichter Fotos, die am Set entstanden, zur Verfügung: von Al Pacino beim Handballspielen bis zum mit explodierenden Blutbeuteln präparierten James Caan gibt es alles, was das Herz begehrt. Als wäre das nicht schon Luxus genug, hat Schapiro auch noch jedes einzelne Exemplar der auf 1000 Stück limitierten Veröffentlichung handsigniert. Weiters versammelt der halbledergebundene Prachtband Texte des Godfather-Romanautors Mario Puzo sowie Interviews mit Marlon Brando, Al Pacino und Francis Ford Coppola.“

"Ce que je veux, moi, c’est le livre relié sur "le Parrain" avec les photos inédites de Steve Schapiro. Ils appellent ça The Godfather Family Album et, dedans, il y a des milliers de photos sublimes servant à la fois d’hommage sincère, de document indispensable et d’objet culte. Bon, c’est tiré à 1000 exemplaires et ça coûtait 500 €, mais l’éditeur TASCHEN vient de nous faire savoir qu’il ne reste plus que quelques exemplaires collectors de 1250 €. Le magazine « Technikart » a donc décidé d’organiser une collecte de dons de façon à ce que Léonard Haddad puisse se l’offrir, en ces temps difficiles de crise internationale. Ayez du cœur, mesdames, mesdemoiselles, messieurs, je ne serai pas ingrat."

„Der Fotograf Steve Schapiro war bei sämtlichen Dreharbeiten dabei. Sein Porträt von Marlon Brando als Don Vito Corleone ist in die Filmgeschichte eingegangen … Der Band versammelt eine Vielzahl von Artikeln, Interviews und Aufzeichnungen zur Entstehung des Films, unter anderem von Mario Puzo, dem Autor der Romanvorlage und Francis Ford Coppola.“

“An Album You Can’t Refuse – Photographer Steve Shapiro was present at the creation of Francis Ford Coppola’s 1972 masterpiece, and The Godfather Family Album, a lavish coffee-table book published last year by TASCHEN, contains more than 400 of Schapiro’s behind-the-scenes images from the Godfather trilogy.”

"Now, diehard Godfather fans are getting the chance to look through Schapiro's lens with The Godfather Family Album, from Taschen Books (www.taschen.com). The Godfather Family Album is a lavish photo collection featuring more than 400 images shot during Schapiro's time with the close-knit family (many of them never-before-seen)."
