George Pal: Man of Tomorrow Paperback by Justin Humphreys (Author), George Pal (Foreword):

The authoritative biography of the twentieth century’s most influential science fiction filmmaker!

George Pal: Man of Tomorrow chronicles the life and films of the trailblazing producer/director/ animator who fathered modern science fiction cinema. Pal’s classics like Destination Moon, When Worlds Collide, The War of the Worlds, and The Time Machine were a quantum leap forward for the genre and inspired generations of filmmakers. Authorized by the George Pal Estate, Justin Humphreys’ compelling biography involved twenty years of exhaustive research-- including unprecedented access to the Pal family’s archive-- and features dozens of new interviews with many of Pal’s coworkers, family members, and admirers. Profusely illustrated, this is the definitive biography of this visionary movie futurist and fantasist.

 

About the Author: Justin Humphreys is a writer, film historian, and curator. His other books include the Rondo Award-winning The Dr. Phibes Companion. 

Praise for Justin Humphreys: 

“Justin Humphreys is simply as good as film historians get. He's got brains, heart, range and nuance each in great supply and uses his powers without prejudice: to remind the world of what and who is truly worthwhile in film. Whether reading him or speaking with him, I'm always challenged and strengthened by his point of view.”

-Sam Wasson, New York Times bestselling author of Fosse and The Big Goodbye.
