Jon Landau, the Academy Award-winning film producer behind Titanic, Avatar, Alita: Battle Angel, Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, and Dick Tracy, knew two things well: how to tell an unforgettable story and how to find solutions.

In his retrospective and advice-driven memoir, Landau shares behind-the-scenes stories about some of the greatest movies of our time and advice on how to live well while working in a notoriously all-consuming job by centring the things that mattered to him most - his love for his family and his dedication to his friends and creative partners - turning his own story into another blockbuster hit. The Bigger Picture is at once a deeply poignant memoir, a tribute to storytelling in its many forms, and a celebration of a life well lived, told from the third act. Imbued with Landau''s trademark compassion, humanity, and humour, the stories he shares and the wisdom he imparts in The Bigger Picture will inspire, delight, and touch the hearts of readers for years to come.
