As a kid, I wanted to be a director, so I'm still interested in the process of making movies to this day. The title "Director's Notebook" led me to think that it was going to show the chronological step-by-step process of making the movie. However, the book is more closely "Catherine Hardwicke's Visual Diary" with pictures and information that she found interesting and wanted to share. Which is okay, and still included some interesting facts for fans. It just should have been titled something else because it focuses on her ideas, involvement, and point-of-view. no reviews | add a review

I know the first Twilight movie is typically made fun of and labeled the worst one, but I actually really love it. It's become a comfort movie for me since the first time I watch it, and I genuinely don't think it's possible for me to whole-heartedly hate it. I will admit that some of it is a bit cringy, and I've experienced second-hand embarrassment at times, but I do love it. I think it had potential, and I loved how Catherine Hardwicke handled the adaptation.
This gives you a behind-the-scenes look of the first book, and I actually found it pretty interesting. Hardwicke includes handwritten notes about her planning of the film. She addresses a few details I noticed while watching, as well as pointing out details I hadn't noticed. ( )
