Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Little Black and White Book of Film Noir: Quotations from Films of the 40s and 50s (Little Red Books) (Paperback)
Is there anything better than Film Noir? This book is a great resource for memorable lines from the golden age of film making where color would only be a distraction from the film. Many of the classic lines from the black and white films of the 40s and 50s are included. It's fun to read (and reread) them. It's a very small book and fits in your pocket. It's a reference guide for the nostalgia buffs like me who don't recognize any of today's stars and wonder where all the great movie stars have gone ...
