Excellent - must have for connoisseur's of B&W portrait photography and fans of Hollywood history.

[Sharone · Rating 5 out of 5]

The text is interesting and gossipy, but the photographs are unforgettable.

[Alexandra Freire · Rating 3 out of 5]

Probablemente hubiera tenido una mayor calificación sino se hubiera centrado el más del 50% de las imágenes en 3 actrices que poco me atraen: Garbo, Dietritch y Crawford.
El resto imágenes muy pocas pero bastante variadas de estrellas del viejo Hollywood desde los años 20 hasta los 50s.
Y un texto que no me llamó la atención mucho.
