I guess it was alright...
, 2008-11-09
This book describes what was happening in Hollywood in conjunction with certain films. The main complaint I have about this book is that a good portion of it is just one paragraph summaries of movies and the importance of those movies to the era is lost. I could [..] and read what the movies were about any time I want, but understanding how they fit into the time period and reflect that era, that has value. The book contains some of this, but not as much as it should.
