Synopsis

From the author of the bestselling annual "Movie Guide" comes this ultimate guide for fans of classic films both familiar and obscure. "The Classic Movie Guide" covers thousands of films, from the silent era to the 1960s, including "The Birth of a Nation," "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari," "Grand Illusion," and "The Maltese Falcon" (all three versions: 1931, 1936, and 1941), "Singin' in the Rain," and "Godzilla, King of the Monsters!" With entries spanning across the decades, this comprehensive guide has expanded star and director indexes, and capsule reviews of obscure and forgotten - the sort that turn up on "Turner Classic Movies" in the wee hours of the morning. This is the perfect companion for anyone who loves the thrill of discovering vintage movies on DVD or cable.
