Written by New York Times bestseller and veteran entertainment journalist Gina McIntyre, the volume offers an in-depth account of the film’s demanding production, creative vision, and elemental brutality, brought to life through extensive behind-the-scenes photography and commentary—an essential collector’s piece celebrating one of modern cinema’s most uncompromising achievements.
