Everything you ever wanted to know about all associated with making films November 22, 2008
This book is a dream come true. I had in my possession for many years, the previous Film Encyclopedia, and enjoyed using it as my reference book so much that it was practically falling apart. Now, this updated version is up-to-date, lighter weight, because it is not a hardcover, and loaded with information about the people who contributed to film from the beginning up to the present. It is easy to carry around and use, and I just love it as my number one reference book. You will, too. It is a must for any film buff.

I have bought every edition of this excellent film encylopaedia and have never found it wanting. It is the most thorough and excellent reference on everything to do with the movie world.
