The Cinema of Robert Zemeckis Towards spiritual images

He is the director of critical and public hits like Hunt for the Green Diamond, Back to the Future, Who Framed Roger Rabbit?, Contact and Forrest Gump. But Robert Zemeckis is also one of the pioneers of digital 3D (with The Pole Express), a technological adventure continued with The Legend of Beowulf and Scrooge's Funny Christmas (Jim Carrey in performance capture). The book paints the portrait of a determined and avant-garde creator, who tried to evolve towards images freed from material constraints, pertaining to the spirit, distinct from the reality of the world, approaching his own ontology. By definition, of the spiritual image. Richly illustrated, the book looks back on the career and aesthetics of a fascinating and always intense screenwriter-director.
