Customer Reviews

Acting: Hollywood Style5
A cache of pictorial treasures coupled with the authors great knowledge of film make this one of the great books on film. Hirsch does what not many intelligent film critics can. He has made a book that the average filmgoer, who is not concerned with complicated syntax, can love.
