Every page of this 160 page, hardcover book is filled with black and white and/or full color large photos. Includes: Top 10, Leading Men, Sex Goddesses, Tough Guys, Beauties, Every Guys, Artists, Comedians, Ingenues, Action Heroes, Rebels, Pros. Presents movie posters, and candid shots. Each chapter provides an interesting page highlighting the chapter. A beautiful book worthy of a place in a movie buff's library.

3.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyed reading, but, not so good reviews of stars by author, April 10, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The 100 Greatest Stars of All Time: Editor, Alison Gwinn ; Senior Writer, Ty Burr (Hardcover)

I really enjoyed this book and the photographs were spectacular. However, the folks who ranked the 'stars' obviously hadn't seen many of the movies the stars were in. For example....#31 Tom Cruise over #78 Richard Burton...oh come on!! Gregory Peck, Anthony Hopkins and Al Pacino should most definitely been ranked in the top ten. Frank Sinatra should have been at least #11. How much did #53 Arnold Schwarzenegger pay the authors to include him in this list?!? He's the butt of many comedian's jokes. How on earth did Bruce Willis make this list?? I've been going to movies for 65years and I consider myself a qualified critic and this list dissappointed me.
