Twilight Director's Notebook

This isn't a review per se, it's more of a head's-up to any Twilighters who might be unsure of whether or not to buy this book or who don't know about it. The Twilight Director's Notebook is a must-buy for anyone who liked/loved the movie. It's done by Catherine Hardwicke; I am reluctant to say "written" because it isn't simply a written chronicle of how the movie was made--the "writing" is mostly captions on pictures and things such as that. It's very interesting. It has pictures, shows pages of the script, it's very in-depth; it's like a published scrapbook of the movie-making process. If you ever wanted to know what the process was that turned the sensational book Twilight into the blockbuster movie Twilight, then this is for you. I wasn't sure I wanted to buy this 176-page publication; I wasn't even really impressed with Hardwicke's direction of the movie, so why would I want to know anything about her process? But I'm very, very glad the fangirl in me won out because Twilight: Director's Notebook is fantastic.
