Reviews
"It's all here -- the agony and the ecstasy, the bad and the beautiful -- depicted with honesty, wit, and hard-won knowledge."-- Jack Lechner, author of "Can't Take My Eyes Off of You", "Christine Vachon doesn't pull any punches, and her candor about filmmaking is truly refreshing. "A Killer Life" is a must-read for aspiring filmmakers and seasoned veterans alike." -- Gale Anne Hurd, producer of the "Terminator" series, "Glamorously adventurous but sometimes scarily truthful, Christine Vachon's funny, insightful new book about producing independent movies reads like a thriller. Boy, can she kick ass to get a movie made."-- John Waters, "The parents of every film student should save the money they're spending sending their kids to school and just buy them a copy of this book."-- Scott Rudin, producer

Strong, steady, creative, loyal, funny, artistic, and doggedly determined to produce films that have meaning and substance and staying power in the pantheon of great cinema, Christine Vachon, a member of the Academy and born and bred on the realistic, unforgiving streets of New York City, is one of the most important people working behind the scenes in the film industry today. How did she get there? Why do directors love her? What does it take to produce great movies? What happened on the set of Kids ? These answers and more are in her book!, (Limelight).

    I got a really good deal on it from the seller, who shipped it very safely and in good time. I really appreciate this, I have always wanted to see the TV Cut of this masterpiece, and I don’t need to wait until the November sale to spend $30 on the 4K Criterion.
