Director's resource

[Ces Peynetti]

Making Movies by the great Sidney Lumet is very insightful, though it's not a "how-to" guide.

One of my favorite books as well. Even if it's not a "how-to" guide, it gives you a great understanding what the life of a Director throughout a production can be. I was very excited after reading this book, pushing me to read all those how-to books which can be a pain at times.
