THIS IS THE BEST ASTAIRE BOOK EVER,
By Marcco99 (Los Angeles CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Starring Fred Astaire (A Windfall book) (Hardcover)
for any hardcore astaire fan this is THE BOOK TO HAVE. a huge picture book, filled with tons of great photos. astaire's career is laid out from the beginning, including his early stage work. there is a chapter devoted to each film, about a dozen pages each, giving the credits and running time, synopsis of film (with the appropriate photos),the backstory of the filming process, ancedotes on and quotes from his co-workers in each film, the critics' reviews of the time, and how successful each film was. the book is well researched and very well written. while stanley green obviously admires astaire, his writing is very objective and journalistic,with very little of his personal opinion mixed in. this is a perfect historical record of astaire's career...a great astaire book.
