Cinematography: Image Making for Cinematographers, Directors, and Videographers
from Focal Press
Price: $30.73

Customer Review:

There are so many shortcomings with this book--where to begin? The text throughout is in serious need of an editor. The author jumps from one thought to another then returns to the first later in the chapter. The information in the book is presented as authoritative and yet some of it is downright... more info

Customer Review:

Mr. Goldman has written a classic. A great panacea for anyone that gets too starry-eyed over celebrities and aspires to "make it big" in show business. I have a great deal of respect for Mr. Goldman's no-holds-barred approach to explaining just how Hollywood works. His book is instructive and... more info

Leonard Maltin's 2009 Movie Guide (Leonard Maltin's Movie Guide)
from Plume
Price: $12.00

Customer Review:

"Maltin" has long been a useful book to keep near the DVD or VCR or TV to get a rough idea what sort of movie you may watch (or have begun to watch), and whether any good. High culture pretentious movies are a little over-rated, genre movies sometimes a little under-rated even if marvelously classic... more info

On Film-making: An Introduction to the Craft of the Director
from Faber & Faber
Price: $10.88

Customer Review:

I have read many books on filmmaking and I have a film school degree (from CalArts, as it happens, where Mackendrick once taught). You can't learn filmmaking from a book or from school, only by making films. Nevertheless, "On Film-making" comes as close as any book I've ever found to explaining... more info

An Empire of Their Own: How the Jews Invented Hollywood
from Anchor
Price: $12.21

Customer Review:

Gabler is a uniquely erudite cultural critic. This is the third book I have read by him and I am deeply impressed with the unusual breadth of his coverage. In this case, he writes about the founding fathers of Hollywood, the dictatorial dreamers and shapers of its golden age (to the late 1940s}. In... more info
