  The Time Out Film Guide contains over 15,800 film reviews assembled over 37 years and written by a team of over 230 sharp, knowledgeable critics. These reviews are drawn from the full spectrum of cinema history: Russian silents to Ealing comedies, classic documentaries to Japanese anime, poverty row B-movies to Hollywood blockbusters. Each review is headed by the film's chief technical credits, country of origin, running time, colour code, copyright year and cast list. In addition, icons identify the top 100 films named in both readers' and Cinema Centenary polls. Twenty-one appendices classify by category and country, while comprehensive indices identify the works of every director covered in the guide and those of a selection of significant actors. Features new to the twelfth edition are present here again. These include colour tabs throughout to aid navigation, more colour illustrations, and the inclusion of 100 new cinefile boxes, containing pictures and more indepth reviews of classic films.
