The Ghost and Mrs. Muir, The Barefoot Contessa, and All About Eve-just three of the most well-known films of writer, director, and producer Joseph L. Mankiewicz. This work contains, first, critical essays about the man and his work, and then presents a guide to resources, an annotated bibliography, and a filmography. The essays on each of his films are categorised under Mankiewicz's Dark Cinema, The Mankiewicz Woman, Filmed Theatre, and Literary Adaptations. The annotated bibliography includes writings by and about Mankiewicz; the filmography includes full cast and credit information and other data. Information on Mankiewicz's awards, miscellaneous and unrealised projects, and film festivals honouring him is also provided.
