This was a nice book but I could not get through it for several reasons: 1) the print was too small which made it (for me) difficult to read and since it was oversized I could not hold book and magnifying glass; 2) disappointed that the photos did not have captions; 3) many of the films discussed I had not seen; and 4) the discussion of the films I had seen became too technical with talks of lenses. While I was familiar with lenses and F-stops from my past as a still photographer I had hoped show more for more discussion of working with the director/actors for the films I was familiar with. This will appeal more to folks who want camera details. show less
