Tony Scott got his start as a film director when he joined his brother at the lucrative commercial directing company Ridley Scott Associates. After directing Top Gun--his second film, which changed not only the trajectory of his own life but of the entire action-movie industry--Scott's career would be a roller coaster of blockbuster hits, personal films and confounding failures.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.
