From high falls and horse gags to fist-fights, fire, water-work and automotive mayhem, this largely unsung group of action-performers has been making movie violence believable and telling stories through exciting sequences without so much as an Oscar category to acknowledge their work. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e This book follows the careers of Loren Janes and Mickey Gilbert, two fabled stunt practitioners born and trained during the pre-CGI film age, and shares their secrets of the trade while walking through five decades of movie magic. The fascinating and original conversations discuss some of Hollywood's most action-packed flicks such as \u003ci\u003eSpartacus, How the West Was Won, Bullitt, The Wild Bunch, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eLittle Big Man\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA member of IATSE's Local 80 Grips since 1993, \u003cb\u003eJames C.
