Publisher's Synopsis

Two of Hollywood's major players come together to share their insights and anecdotes about the art and the business of film-making in the 21st century.

Hollywood thrives on shoot outs - that series of stand-offs, skirmishes and power struggles that mark every stage of the film-making process - be it a director insisting on a final cut, a star demanding a bigger trailer, or a grip with a gripe.

Shoot Out is about how movies are made - from the first pitch to the final cut. For film buffs, aspiring film-makers, students and anyone else intrigued by the inner workings of Hollywood, this is the quintessential take on the how, who, what and why of the film business.
