Description

This latest edition of Halliwell's Filmgoers Companion continues to provide an unmatched wealth of information on thousands of American, British, and European actors, directors, writers and producers, from the earliest pioneers of cinema to today's hottest box office stars. In its pages, movie buffs will find biographies, filmographies and a complete listing of Academy and European film award winners. In addition, unlike its competitors, this remarkable resource also contains special features such as: entertaining quotes from actors, directors and critics from around the world; entries on fictional characters and popular film themes; the Halliwell "rosette," which recognizes the outstanding achievers of the industry; a brief chronological history of the cinema; and a specially selected list of recommended books on film history. Now in its 12th edition, Halliwell's Filmgoers Companion has been in continuous publication for more than 30 years, and its reputation as the most comprehensive and authoritative reference on the film industry is well deserved. It is a must for movie fans, students, teachers, critics and anyone else who loves the magic of the silver screen.
