by Edward Ross
Hennepin County Library paperback 177 pages plus endnotes
genre: graphic novel non-fiction
This is one of those rare times in my life that I decided not to finish reading the book. It is well-researched and well-drawn, but I don't care deeply enough about film to really enjoy it. I recognized some of the films (Rambo, Wizard of Oz, etc.) and had absolutely no clue about others. The endnotes provide a wealth of additional information, but I just didn't find it compelling. It's like a graphic novel version of a college text on film history, techniques, and psychology. I think it would take a serious movie buff to enjoy this book.
