Tony Scott: A Filmmaker on Fire - Paperback
by Larry Taylor (Author)
Tony Scott got his start as a film director when he joined his brother at the lucrative commercial directing company Ridley Scott Associates.

With extensive research and original interviews with actors, cinematographers and writers, this book documents Tony Scott's larger-than-life persona from his early days to his untimely death, which left a hole in genre filmmaking yet to be filled.
