Solid compilation of movies to see with only a few clunkers in the bunch--some of the more contemporary choices are a bit strained (Young Guns is not a classic western). But on the whole, well chosen and a nice intro for film novices and even for more flick savvy folks like myself there were a few surprises--films that I may have been only vaguely aware of are now on my watch for list (Dead of Night, The Iron Horse, Run of the Arrow). Broken in film genre's (Western, Romance, Sci-Fi, Mystery/Thriller), each film is given a tight synopsis with credits and academy award nominations and wins. Nice to have laying around for the occasional dip or dive into. ( ) There might be about 20 films I disagree should be here, and perhaps 35 I'd add. And, of course, there's one or two new films every year I'd add to the mix. However, all-in-all, this book would make an excellent guide to anyone wishing to build their own film collection. And, yes, I do own the lion's share of these. A decent book on the subject. Not all of the films listed are "must see" in my opinion, but a great many certainly are. The quality of the entries varies, but that is inevitable in a book like this, I guess. There were a surprising number of typos in names, however. The book did make me want to watch many of the mentioned films, so it cannot have been a failure in its most important purpose. I bought this version because the 1001 must see movies is too overwhelming! I saw Breakfast At Tiffanys the other day and just loved it! I usually will seek out the action shoot em up films, but this book helps one decide on movies that are not current and we need to be reminded that they are still out there. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

501 Must-See Movies is divided into ten genres, with films appearing in chronological order in each category. Every film is illustrated and each entry includes a synopsis of the plot, details of awards for which it was nominated and those it won, and fascinating background or insider knowledge about the making of the picture, as well as our experts' rationale for defining it as 'must-see'. Many of the unrivalled classics are here, but perhaps seen from a new perspective by dynamic young critics, together with some unexpected and new discoveries. 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 collection.
