|
(Bonniers Swe 1999 Hft 80:-)
"Bonniers Stora Film & Video Guide" är baserat på ansedda amerikanska "Leonard Maltin's Movie & Video Guide". Här finns kunniga och bitska omdömen om c:a 9000 filmer. Alla är betygssatta och försedda med uppgifter om bland annat regissör, skådespelare, längd och premiärår.
Som vanligt är ambitionen både att lotsa rätt i filmvalet, och att ge mer eller mindre udda information som gör filmupplevelserna rikare.

| Paul Newman - Superstar
|
Lionel Godfrey 50:-
This was the first full-length biography to shed light on a Hollwood Idol whose real-life exploits and enigmatic personality have become even more fascinating with the passage of years. Paul Newman Superstar explores the extraordinary careers and the shared life of Paul and Joanne, but above all Lionel Godfrey provides us with an in-depth, rare and incisive look at Paul Newman himself--the celebrity and the extremely private man, the beer-drinking, fast-driving, hard-living sex symbol, and the uncomplicated family man whose marriage has endured through decades of Hollywood stress and slander. It is a story of one of the rarest acting talents of our time; a great director and great man.

Graham Flashner 50:-
Screenwriter Flashner uses a Q & A format to test readers' knowledge of the "funniest lines and scenes from Woody's films, plays, books and nightclub routines, as well as behind-the-scenes production notes." The more than 500 questions are difficult and include, for example, "For all of Woody's New York filming, he only rides the subway once . . . and is terrorized. In which movie does he ride?"
