'501 Must-see Movies' is essential reading for both the film buff and those who simply enjoy going to the movies. Many of the unrivalled classics are there, but perhaps seen from a new perspective by dynamic young critics, together with some unexpected and new discoveries. The book is divided into ten genres, with fifty films (plus one!) appearing in chronological order in each category. Every film is illustrated and each category. Every film is illustrated and each entry includes a synopsis of the plot, details of awards for wich it was nominated and those it won, and fascinating background or insider knowledge about the making of the picture, as well as our expert's rationale for defining it as must-sse. Containing over a century of film history '501 Must-see Movies' is a 'must have' on all bookshelves and is the perfect companion to any home cinema DVD and video collection....
