Reviews

[Anthony McGill · Rating 4 out of 5]

Beauty of this book is that brings to our attention a lot of obscure film posters not seen in so many other books devoted to poster advertising. That's important because the market has been flooded with film poster books in recent years.
This one concentrates on the films of independent auteurs, individual films, documentaries and a few music films.
Some very unusual entries including some I have never heard of let alone seen!
