SinopseWhen Robert Frank had completed his first two films, he accepted a commission for a photo-book from the New York Times, which became "Zero Mostel Reads a Book". In it Frank takes the comic actor Zero Mostel (1915–1977) for hissubject, and depicts him in cartoonish dimensions – bemused, baffled and apoplectic, as he makes his way through an unidentified hardback volume, seated at a table or on a sofa in a large lounge area. Originally published “for the fun of it” in 1963 and dedicated to the American bookseller, the book was intended as a present for customers yet it never reached the book market. It has been a collector’s item since. "Zero Mostel Reads a Book" references a series of theatrical and playful vignettes in which Mostel’s most famous roles – Tevye in "Fiddler on the Roof", "Pseudolus in A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum", and Max Bialystock in "The Producers" – are clearly signaled. It is a delightful moment of slapstick in Frank’s oeuvre, and directly reflects his emphasis on the moving image at the time.
