Easy Rider
Easy Rider (1969) broke the mould of Hollywood studio production, making stars of Peter Fonda, Dennis Hopper and Jack Nicholson, and launching a new wave of radical and experimental American cinema. One of the key films of the late 60s, Easy Rider enshrined the ideals of the counterculture, but also foresaw their demise in the division and paranoia of a nation rocked by Watergate and the Vietnam War. Few films since have captured its particular blend of innocence and cynicism, hope and despair. In his illuminating study of the film, Lee Hill explores both the circumstances surrounding its making and the social and cultural forces that found expression in it. Hill argues that the role of the film’s primary screenwriter, Terry Southern, has been neglected as the exact circumstances of production, filming and editing have become lost in myth-making. Drawing on archival research and first-person interviews with Southern, Hill questions some of the legends that surround Easy Rider. In his afterword to this new edition, Hill revisits the film from the perspective of a contemporary era of political strife, and traces the subsequent fortunes of its director, producer and stars Hopper, Fonda and Nicholson in a changing Hollywood.

A Little More Love
An in-depth biography that closely examines the superstar’s multi-faceted career, personal life, advocacy, and legacy. Olivia Newton-John was one of the biggest and most iconic global pop stars in history with estimated record sales of over 100 million and starring roles in several films, including Grease and Xanadu. Her hit “Physical” was ranked by Billboard as the most popular single of the 1980s. Behind all of this glitz and glamor was an extremely strong, kind, and resilient person with an unfailing, positive attitude in the face of personal tragedies and setbacks. For decades, she bravely and publicly battled breast cancer while continuing her career and advocated for environmental issues, animal rights, and LGBTQ+ rights. This biography, based on extensive archival research and original interviews with many of her friends and associates, reveals the real person who was Olivia Newton-John. Matthew Hild provides many never-before-shared insights into the star’s life, including her humanitarianism and personal struggles, and dives deeply into her many famous records and lesser-known work, from her early start in Australia all the way to her last recording – a moving duet of “Jolene” with Dolly Parton.
