Review: An Excellent Outline For Any Film Lover - With the retirement of Leonard Maltin's Movie Guide and the death of Roger Ebert this may be best book of film recommendations. Keep in mind this is not critical reviews, but a collection of essays on (just as the title says) 1,001 must see films. A thick, glossy hard-covered, 950 page brick of a book. Filled with essays, beautiful film stills, quotes, movie posters, running times and cast and crew details, and categorized by year. This is hard to put down once you open it. Hits all the major classics, as well as some rarely seen cult classics, foreign art-house, silent era, and forgotten gems. I have seen about 500 of the the 1,001 and as for my opinion of the list: I'm glad to see entries for Seconds (1966), Performance (1970), Haxan (1922), Onibaba (1964), The Saragossa Manuscript (1965), The Cook, The Thief, His Wife And Her Lover (1989), and Celine and Julie Go Boating (1974), but where are that film's distant American cousins Mulholland Dr. and Eyes Wide Shut!? Mulholland Dr. is the most shocking exclusion in the entire book, and a somewhat unbelievable omission to an otherwise fine list ...and where is Olivier's Hamlet!? Some films on the list seem like odd choices like Andy Warhol's Vinyl, Jackie (2016), and for some unknown reason Independence Day (1996), is here, just to name a few. Some other films I would consider adding: Kurosawa's Stray Dog (1949-wow!), Picture Of Dorian Gray(1945), Knife In The Water (1960), The Virgin Spring (1959), Kwaidan (1964), The Loneliness Of The Long Distance Runner (1962), The Last Detail (1973), O' Lucky Man (1973), Drowning By Numbers (1988), Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992), Casino (1995), Children Of Men (2006), Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (2011), and the Kill Bill films, probably many others, maybe even Donnie Darko, that film was quite popular. As you can see, bringing out an artistic passion in film is one thing that makes this book fun and provocative. Any film buff who doesn't already own this definitely needs to.
