The New York Times Guide to the Best 1000 Movies Ever Made
Description:... In "The New York Times Guide to the Best 1,000 Movies Ever Made," the film critics of the "Times" have gathered the original reviews of their list of the best. Covering every conceivable genre, from comedies, dramas, and science-fiction to foreign films, musicals, and others, this book provides the student with an essential resource. How were "Psycho" or "Fantasia" originally received? For movies that are often subsumed in their own legends, the original review is a corrective lens for a hindsight that is often anything but 20/20. This volume also includes and introductory essay by Janet Maslin and modern postscripts to movies that survived their original trashing to become classics.
