About this title

Reviews

This is the first of five volumes, to be completed by 1991. It incorporates 650 films and is expanded both in coverage and physical format from the first edition (1984-87), which included 500 films. The improved format, especially in the arrangement of the bibliographies, makes it considerably easier to use. Entries are alphabetical by film title in the original language (e.g., Popiol i Diament , not Ashes and Diamonds ) but cross-references to other versions of the title are now provided. Along with bibliographies, each entry contains a brief synopsis/critical essay, credits, and miscellaneous production data. This edition is a major advance over the first edition ( LJ 11/1/84; an LJ " Best Reference" in 1985), but it unaccountably omits the criteria for inclusion. Recommended for all general collections.
