During a career that spanned fifty years and produced more than forty films, this writer, producer, and director made highly successful movies and managed to maintain remarkable artistic control during a time when studio moguls usually ruled. Hawks conquered virtually every genre, including action\/adventure, comedy, western, film noir, gangster, science fiction, and musical films.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe remarkable diversity of his work may have kept Hawks from being as easily recognized as his contemporaries Alfred Hitchcock and John Ford. Hawks brought a unique stamp to all of his films by mixing dramatic and comedic elements, manipulating gender conventions, emphasizing story and dialogue, and eschewing cinematic trickery and sentimentality. His classic oeuvre includes films such as \u003cem\u003eScarface\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eOnly Angels Have Wings\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eHis Girl Friday\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eSergeant York\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eBringing Up Baby\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eThe Big Sleep\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eRed River\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eGentlemen Prefer Blondes\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem\u003eRio Bravo\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis collection of interviews takes the reader from talks with his admirers in the French press to revealing discussions late in his life.
