review 1: Seriously, firstly, why do I own this book? Secondly... why did I just read it? Oh, at least I know the answer to my second question, I can't let a book go unread... This was just a stupid, pointless read. Catherine Hardwicke is a self obsessed egomaniac, who is perhaps a little too obsessed with Twilight... which means my original theory that the first movie is slightly taking the piss was entirely wrong, it's unintentionally funny... Then there's all the issues I have with whomever did the book's layout. It's crap. Tiny pictures, gimmicky handwriting, and I'm sure for those obsessed with Twilight, not enough pictures of the actors. Also, why did this movie have like no budget and why did it not film in Washington? Just wondering...
review 2: Not exactly what
... more I was expecting. As a kid, I wanted to be a director, so I'm still interested in the process of making movies to this day. The title "Director's Notebook" led me to think that it was going to show the chronological step-by-step process of making the movie. However, the book is more closely "Catherine Hardwicke's Visual Diary" with pictures and information that she found interesting and wanted to share. Which is okay, and still included some interesting facts for fans. It just should have been titled something else because it focuses on her ideas, involvement, and point-of-view. less

I'm gonna go ahead and rate it 4* because when I was 15 (wow, has it really been that long?!)I loved it. I loved seeing the process of how the film came together and how some decisions were made. I remember there being some explanations of why certain scenes from the book were left out and I liked having that insight.In all honesty it was one of the reasons I chose to study film at A-level... I wanted to have a director's notebook of my own one day, HA! ~cringe~I still have my copy of it somewhere, I wonder what it would be like to read through it now!

My Review: If you liked the movie Twilight and have any interest at all on how the movie was made...BUY THIS BOOK! The pictures are amazing and so cool. It gives you the basic lowdown on how Twilight was made...from costumes to why 2nd unit filmed what they did. My only real complaint is that it was so small. I think it should have been larger like the Twilight: the Complete Illustrated Movie Companion. Its also an insanely fast read. i had it done with in 2 hours. All in all, a great buy.
