"Published to coincide with the centenary of his birth, this is an examination of the personal concerns which Howard Hawks brought to his films, and which enabled him to stamp his distinctive signature on what once appeared to be a random assortment of genre pieces. Hawks's discussion of his working methods in this frequently irreverent book represents a master class in the practical art of film direction."
"Summary: An introduction to the concept of genre, a history of the crime fiction genre, an analysis and evaluation of three crime texts - Howard Hawks The Big Sleep, Stoppards The Real Inspector Hound and Michael Ondaatje's Anil's Ghost."

" The story of the making of To Have and Have Not (1944) is an exciting and complex one, ranging from the widely reported romance between its stars, Humphrey Bogart and the unknown nineteen-year old Lauren Bacall, to one of the more subtle developments in the wartime alliance between the United States and the Batista regime in Cuba. Bruce F. Kawin's substantial and informed introduction reflects this excitement while explaining the co ..."
"Screwball comedy was practically invented by this classic Howard Hawks picture, a breathless farce with not an ounce of sentimentality. John Barrymore, in magnificent form, plays egomaniacal Broadway producer Oscar Jaffe, who molds his latest protégé, Mildred Plotka, into elegant thee-a-tuh star Lily Garland (Carole Lombard). The last hour of the picture has Oscar and Lily, now on the outs, battling each other on the Chicago-to-New York ..."
"With its modest special effects, lean plot, and small cast of lesser stars, this 1951 thriller remains a sturdy blueprint for fusing horror and science fiction. The formula has been employed countless times since, fleshed out with more extensive and elaborate production values, and manned by higher profiled marquee names, but the results have yet to improve on The Thing from Another World, Howard Hawks's lone foray into sci-fi. The ..."
"Indémodable ! Une des meilleures comédies américaines sophistiquées des années 30, également appelée Screwball Comedies. L'intrigue ? Un homme dont la vie bien réglée se trouve bouleversée par l'arrivée d'une femme. D'où des situations incongrues d'une irrésistible drôlerie : un léopard appelé Bébé qui aime entendre chanter "I can't give you anything but love" ; des quiproquos en tout genre ; un digne paléontologue qui s'étale dan ..."
"Sur un scénario signé Oliver Stone, le Scarface de De Palma est un remake assumé d'un classique des années 30. Œuvre baroque à souhait et thriller palpitant, Scarface reste l'une des réalisations majeures de son auteur. Pacino est génial en prince des voyous. Cubain exilé en Floride, Tony Montana, son personnage, travaille pour le compte du caïd Frank Lopez. Mais l'ascension de Tony dans le monde de la pègre semble irrésistible… L ..."
"Al Pacino gives an unforgettable performance as Tony Montana, one of the most ruthless gangsters ever depicted on film, in this gripping crime epic inspired by the 1932 classic of the same title.

"The Front Page, Ben Hecht and Charles MacArthur's classic 1928 newspaper play, has had three official film versions and contributed structural DNA to half the movies ever made about professional camaraderie and fierce love-hate friendships. Lewis Milestone's 1931 movie is well respected (Billy Wilder's 1974 version isn't), but this is one case where the remake towers brilliantined head and blocked shoulders above the original. Howard Ha ..."
"Wenn es darum geht, den besten Western aller Zeiten zu bestimmen, beschränkt sich die Liste meist auf drei vollkommen unterschiedlich Filme. John Fords Der schwarze Falke, Howard Hawks Red River und Rio Bravo, ebenfalls von Howard Hawks. Das Einzige, das diese Filme gemeinsam haben ist, dass John Wayne in allen dreien mitspielt. Während es sich bei Der schwarze Falke um ein episches Rachedrama handelt und Red River ein schwungvoller Vie ..."
"Hatari! is Swahili for "danger"-and also the word for action, adventure and broad comedy in this two-fisted Howard Hawks effort. John Wayne stars as the head of a daring Tanganyka-based group which captures wild animals on behalf of the world's zoos. Hardy Kruger, G+ªrard Blain and Red Buttons are members of Wayne's men-only contingent, all of whom are reduced to jello when the curvaceous Elsa Martinelli enters the scene. In tried and t ..."
