RATING: 4 STARS

This is a great coffee table book!

This little book maybe outdated today, but it is a joy to read for any Cinephile like myself. Good to put with one’s collection of Coffee Table Books. Or if you are in the field of medicine, put it in your waiting room.

A good lookk at 100 Movie Stars and the high points of their careers. One of those books that caught my eye that I picked up just because.

Don't necessarily agree with all their selections or ordering of them, but interesting.
