Hell, I think Final Cut should be required reading for anyone interested on film history and production. It's a guide book on all the wrong ways to make a movie: the warning signs of a prima donna director, how inept producers can be, how easy it is to push a production past the point of no return. It's an unendingly intriguing and fascinating story, and it absolutely needs to be told in connection to the film.Robin9 said:I disagree. Final Cut remains a valuable document providing essential information about the making of this film. Those decades of reconsideration have been about the film, not about the accuracy of Mr. Bach's book.
Like Joe Mankiewicz's "Cleopatra," the behind-the-scenes stories on the making of the film will always be a part of the experience. It can't just be about the film anymore.
