Graduated sociologist, likes social sciences, self-improvement and motivational writings. He fond of gastronomy, likes to try new flavors and is a dedicated fitness enthusiast.
Already in his teenage years, Tom decided that one day he will help people with his writings. Since the age of 16, he has been reading self-development and motivational books and doing sports several times a week. He likes basketball, swimming, going to the gym and working out at home with his own bodyweight exercises.
As a former overweight child, he knows how important proper nutrition and regular exercise are, so he tries to educate himself as much as possible in this field as well. He is also aware of the importance of mental health in addition to physical health, and the continuous training of ourselves, whether at school or independently.
Therefore, after graduating from university, where he get a degree in sociology, he began to look into who he could help by combining what he learned at school and his own life experiences. His field of research and interest was limited to teenagers and young adults, soon he had enough material at his disposal to write his first two books.
As an eager cinema and movie fan, he also wrote his first film writing and later a self-confidence handbook, which is also based on his social studies and contains extremely useful practical parts in addition to the theoretical chapters.
Having previously worked in the hospitality industry for several years, he has some insight into the preparation of delicious, nutritious and healthy meals, so his first book, partly containing food recipes, was recently published.
This book is the first comprehensive presentation of M. Night Shyamalan's oeuvre, from his early work, "Praying with Anger" to his last film, "Knock at the Cabin". In some chapters, the reflective essays focus primarily on the production history of the films and the description of their main plot; while in other parts, the director's biography is echoed as well.
It is noteworthy that the book is not an analysis and not even critical at all, but it is rather an objective, entertaining and interesting piece of writing in which, of course, after a short introduction, the history of each film along with the central storyline (without too much spoiler), the main characters together with the actors who perform them are presented. In the individual chapters, some data, pictures and compelling information about each work are introduced about which the majority of viewers and fans may not have heard before. With the help of this book it is my unconcealed intention to draw people's attention to Mr. Shyamalan's previous works and to arose their interest in his future films as well.
The book also attempts to meet the expected professional requirements as it includes references, indications of the used source materials, and is written in a sophisticated tone of voice, however, its language is perfectly intelligible to contemporary readers.
This is a truly entertaining e-book containing illustrations. As for the genre, this book is close to a biography, however, it mainly focuses on the director's works. So the book summarizes the famous film director's work so far and presents the films he has directed in chronological order. In addition to providing an insight into the production background of the films, each chapter describes its story and main plot as well as its main roles and the stars, captivating behind-the-scenes stories and rumours related to each work.
In the book, I also introduce the makers of each film, the producers and the production companies, the editor, the cinematographer, the composer, and I share a lot of useful data, information and critical reviews with the reader. I attempted to write a book which not only tends to be informative, but also entertains, makes people feel like watching the movies, no matter whether they are Mr. Shyamalan's very early works or his lately directed films.
