Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. 5th Edition, Completely Revised & Update. FINE virtually AS-NEW Fifth Edition, Revised (October 2010) * 6.84" x 9.50" x 2.16", 1.66 kg, x+1076 (1086) pp * ABOUT THE BOOK: David Thomson's "New Biographical Dictionary of Film" topped Sight & Sound magazine's 2010 poll of… international critics & writers as the BEST FILM BOOK OF ALL TIME. Here in its 5th edition, updated & w/ more than 130 new entries, the classic, beloved film book is better than ever. For 35 years, David Thomson's "Biographical Dictionary of Film" has been "FIENDISHLY SEDUCTIVE" (Greil Marcus, Rolling Stone), "the finest reference book ever written about movies" (Graham Fuller, Interview) & "not only an indispensable book about cinema, but one of the most absurdly ambitious literary achievements of our time" (Geoff Dyer, The Guardian). For this edition, Thomson brought up to date & in some case recast the biographies, & added new ones (e.g. Clive Owen, Scarlett Johansson, Jake Gyllenhaal, & Marion Cotillard). Including almost 1,500 entries, some of them just a pungent paragraph, some of them several thousand words long, every one a gem, this is a great, rare book that encompasses the chaos of art, entertainment, money, vulgarity & nonsense that we call the movies. Personal, opinionated, funny, daring, provocative & passionate, it is the one book that every filmmaker & film buff must own, from the man David Hare called "the most stimulating & thoughtful film critic now writing." HIGHEST PRAISE: "The single most stunningly informative, learned & provocative book I've encountered about the movies . . . The breadth of Thomson's research & his skill in writing about that knowledge will take your breath away, whether you are a scholarly aficionado or a weekend film-goer." -William W. Starr, The State (Columbia, SC) "Thomson's love for the medium is proprietary, possessive, suffused with an academic's breadth of knowledge & a fan's mad crushes. He is by turns analytical & ardent, dryly appalled & moistly enthralled-& his book deserves a home on whatever flat surface is available between you & your DVD player." -Mark Harris, Entertainment Weekly "Even more seductive than the last edition. One of the most influential books on cinema ever written.-Henry Cabot Beck, New York Daily News "And now, [The Biographical Dictionary of Film] stands before us again, as grand & eccentric as Samuel Johnson's dictionary, or one of the madder, more imaginary encyclopedias you'll find in the pages of Borges. Mr. Thomson is, I think, the last of the great film writers, up there with Graham Greene & Pauline Kael--not least because he has the courage to wonder aloud whether film is greatness' proper medium. [He] is here to sing the multiplex blues--sitting there, at the back to the cinema, amid the torn velour & spilled Pepsi--but this book is the most beautiful of torch songs, & more than bright enough to light up the gloom." -Tom Shone, New York Observer "Thomson has demonstrated wit & originality beyond a reasonable doubt. In the fifth edition of his deservedly treasured reference work, the book's third & biggest revision since it first appeared in 1975, Thomson proves anew that he is irreplaceable. 'The New Biographical Dictionary of Film' is starting to feel like a public resource. Thomson's monologue has blossomed into an unlikely, searching dialogue about what to value in the movies. Thomson adds another honest wrinkle to one of the most probing accounts ever written of a human being's engagement with the movies." -Sarah Kerr, NYTBR "A reference book of extraordinary literary merit, this eccentric, audacious, sparkling work returns--revised, updated, & bulging with 300 new entries. Probably the greatest living film critic & historian, Thomson, an Englishman who lives in San Francisco, writes the most fun and enthralling prose about the movies since Pauline Kael. The book is a marvel." -Benjamin Schwarz, Atlantic Monthly * SHIPPING: FREE custom-packaged domestic shipment via USPS MEDIA MAIL . . .
