  The centrepiece of this issue comes from the celebrated French film magazine, Cahiers du Cinema. For their 500th issue Martin Scorsese contributed material not only about his own work - including his relationship with Robert de Niro - but also about film-makers he admires: those of his generation (Coppola, De Palma, Lucas and Spielberg), as well as those film-makers whose legacy enriches cinema today (Ford, Raoul Walsh, Ida Lupino, Hitchcock, John Cassavetes). He celebrates the glories of the British cinema, and concludes by posing five essential questions about film. Other contributors include: Jamie Lee Curtis - In Conversation with Janet Leigh and Lillian Burns Hippolyte Girardot - Never Forget Mastroianni Frances Mcdormand & Willem Dafoe - Acting is Believing Robert Mitchum - Looking Like Nothing Matters Brian Cox - Manhunter Leslie Caron - The L-Shaped Room Sylvia Syms - Victim Teresa Wright - Shadow of a Doubt Jaco van Dormael - Life Lessons Bebe Barron - Making Music for Forbidden Planet Christopher Porter - Photographing Dead Man Frank Capra/Douglas Sirk - A Centenary Tribute William K. Everson/Marcello Mastroianni - In Memoriam

  Projections is a forum for practitioners of the cinema to write about their work. The first issue includes a journal compiled by John Boorman which records his responses to the events and trends of 1991, and their implications for the future of cinema. Like his Emerald Forest diary, Money into Light, it is a fascinating mix of anecdote, personal reflections, thoughts on the nature of cinema, and comments on the practical business of making films. Projections also contains contributions from cinematographer Nestor Almendros, who describes the craft of photographing the human face, and from Jonathan Demme, who traces the evolution of his career from his early days with Roger Corman to his chilling Silence of the Lambs. River Phoenix and Gus Van Sant discuss their work together on My Own Private Idaho; there is a script from one of the most original talents in American today, Hal Hartley, and a penetrating account by director Michael Mann of his startling new version of Last of the Mohicans.
