Johnny Don't Go


Book Description

In Johnny Don't Go, Johnny is offered a way of getting Sardou out of his life for good but the stakes could not be higher. Laurent is pressing changes in their relationship and Johnny is resisting but knows that he has to change or get left behind. The rescue of a young prostitute leverages the means to kick Sardou into touch and the judicious theft of a wallet gives Johnny and the crew one of the most exciting - and lucrative - nights of their lives. At the end of the night, Johnny is moving swiftly into the future and knows that he can't afford to look back. Johnny is a con artist, a rogue who you either love or hate, and regular superhero in his own way. He has ‘a man has to do what a man has to do’ attitude running through his veins. Twenty, bisexual, Parisian – born and bred in the 10th on Rue Bichat, Johnny is a survivor, promiscuous, frequently doped out or drunk – usually both, and is a huge fan of Joni Mitchell, turtles and Mahoran cooking. Johnny Don’t Go is the third story in a series of stories - The Life & Times of Johnny Santé - which will chart the rises and falls in a young man’s fortunes, loves and friendships. This story contains graphic descriptions of sexual encounters and frequent usage of bad language. I sincerely hope that you enjoy the story.

The Ironic Filmmaking of Stephen Frears


Book Description

Stephen Frears has a career approaching over half-a-century, directing films of astonishing variety, beauty, and daring, and yet many often have trouble remembering his name. The Ironic Filmmaking of Stephen Frears celebrates this great filmmaker, beginning with a short biography of Frears, general observations on unifying themes and styles in his oeuvre, and the characterization of his manner of directing. By focusing on 10 key films, Lesley Brill finds coherence in Frears' characteristic irony and in his concentration on many kinds of love. In movies such as My Beautiful Laundrette, Dangerous Liaisons, High Fidelity, The Queen, Philomena, and many others, Frears portrays widely varied situations and characters with a combination of insight, skepticism, and sympathy. He has the passionate, unjudgmental focus of an artist who stands simultaneously at a distance from his subjects and within their worlds. Through Frears' work is widely admired, Brill argues that he has attracted little scholarly writing because of a combination of the diffidence of his self-presentation and the difficulty of explicating the complex ideas and characters of his films. The Ironic Filmmaking of Stephen Frears is meant to inspire others to further examine his films individually and his career as a whole.
