BRANDON
- The Crow: The Story Behind Brandon Lee's Final Film - Bridget Baiss, $25.00
- The book is a great read, and extremely informative. You don't need to be a fan of the film or Brandon Lee to enjoy it - it is a fascinating insight into the making of a film in its own right. The events leading to the death of Brandon Lee are clearly thoroughly researched - and not at all confusing, as one reviewer asserted.
Where it falls down however is in the images department. There are some black and white stills from the set - I expected more. Also, even a cursory reading reveals multiple typos and copy-editing problems, such as repeated sentences. Which is very disappointing in a not-so-cheap hardcover I must say ...
- Wild Hairs - David J. Schow, $19.95
- A collection of essays on various topics which includes Schow's memories of time spent with Brandon during the making of The Crow, as well as other Crow-related content. Read an excerpt - a very moving piece - here.
- They Died Too Young: Brandon Lee - Cindy Dyson, $19.65
- Brandon joins his father in having one of these little books devoted to him.
- Bruce Lee, Brandon Lee and the Dragon's Curse - Charles Hoffman, $149.99
- It has more than 20 photos, which sounds attractive, but the title does not inspire much confidence, I must say. At worst it probably recycles the old curse myths, at best it's a marketing gimmick.
