Book Description

November 6, 2001
This unique day-by-day movie guide offers much more than terrific video rental suggestions. It follows a full year of movie-viewing milestones, tied-in to world events, national holidays, celebrity birthdays, important anniversaries, history-making events and other cinematic ephemera. It's also packed with little known facts, fascinating trivia, behind-the-scenes anecdotes, and insightful opinions from a respected syndicated reviewer.

Richard Roeper of "Ebert & Roeper and the Movies" has already given A Movie A Day, a big thumbs up:

"Uhler has produced a witty and interesting reminder that every day of the year has its own significant place in the history of cinema. Pick a date, any date, and A Movie A Day will tell you its place in the colorful history of the motion picture. Fun, insightful, and a real treat for any movie lover."

5.0 out of 5 stars What a concept!, April 6, 2002
By 
This review is from: A Movie a Day (Paperback)
With this book, you have history and movies combined in one. Of course, some of the history points are rather stetching the concept. For instance, the entry for Jan 2, the date that marks the anniversary of the 55mph speed limit, the author recommends "Speed". But Uhler fills the book with lots of interesting tidbits, and leaves virtually no stone left unturned. There is even a section at the end for those rotating days like Mother's, Father's and Grandparent's Day. You'll be more than a year checking out all the great flicks he mentions (some get more than one).

5.0 out of 5 stars Movie reviews -- with a fun twist, December 28, 2001

Another Film Fan (Austin, TX United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Movie a Day (Paperback)
Got to see a copy of "A Movie A Day" and thought the whole premise was an excellent idea! It's easy (and good!) reading, and I could skip around at will not just for the reviews but to learn a little about days of the year. The price made it a very affordable Christmas gift for the film fans on my list (there are many), and every one of them raved about what a cool book it is.
