A filmmaker with a diverse background in music, drama and television, Hill proved to be a popular storyteller in a variety of genres. His films are tied to important American themes and reflect an ironic, bittersweet vision of life. The book begins with a discussion of the way Hill's films often make their most important statements on the subtextual level. The stories entertain, but the subtext is often disturbing, contradictory, unresolved. Hill felt that all of his major characters create an environment, a fantasy, an illusion, and then go on to make it happen. It continues by tracing the thematic characteristics that are consistent with Hill's depiction of protagonists who create their own environments and then attempt to inhabit them. Then, individual chapters study in detail the art, craft and style of each of his films, including Period of Adjustment, Toys in the Attic, The World of Henry Orient, Hawaii, Thoroughly Modern Millie, Slaughterhouse Five, The Great Waldo Pepper, Slap Shot, A Little Romance, The World According to Garp, The Little Drummer Girl, Funny Farm, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, The Sting" ; Andrew Horton is the Jeanne H. Smith Professor of Film and Video Studies at the University of Oklahoma. He is an award-winning screenwriter who has written for American, Greek, New Zealand, Russian, Hungarian, and Norwegian productions. ; "As I get older, I get more didactic. I say what I really think. I don't hide ideas like Easter eggs for people to find. Now, if I have an idea, when something becomes clear to me, I don't embed it in a novel; I simply write it out in an essay as clearly as I can?"--George Roy Hill ; photos of Robin Williams, Paul Newman, Jane Fonda, Jim Hutton, Tony Franciosa, Dean Martin, Yvette Mimieux, Geraldine Page, Peter Sellers, Tippy Walker Marie Spaeth, Max von Sydow, Julie Andrews, Robert Redford, Michael Sacks, Michael Ontkean, Laurence Olivier, Diane Lane, Thelonius Bernard, John Lithgow, Glenn Close, Mary Beth Hurt ; FINE/VG.
