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 here, 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 file 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 a must-see.
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.
