Enfant terrible he may be, but Alex Cox is a pioneer and promoter of new forms of filmmaking for the cultural revolutionaries of the twenty- first century." "X Films has as its center the filmmaking autobiography of a fine director - the journey through all his major films and how they were made. Cox takes us to varied locations, including the U.S., Mexico, and Nicaragua, where he made Walker with the cooperation of the Sandinista government. He is full of fresh ideas and rare insights into many films of different genres and the people he has worked with, including such greats as Dennis Potter and Harry Dean Stanton."--Jacket. 600 10 Cox, Alex,|d1954- 600 17 Cox, Alex.|2swd 600 17 Cox, Alex,|d1954-|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01690238 600 17 Cox, Alex,|d1954-.|0(DE-588)122252772|2gnd 650 0 Motion picture producers and directors|zGreat Britain |vBiography. 650 07 Film.|2swd 650 7 Motion picture producers and directors.|2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01027225 650 07 Film.|0(DE-588)4017102-4|2gnd 651 7 Great Britain.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01204623 655 7 Biography.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01423686 856 42 |3Publisher description|uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/ enhancements/fy1413/2007046768-d.html 956 20160224 |bpfmcq|cCC 957 OCLC xref loaded 20160306 994 C0|bCUY
