A must have for cinema nuts!

WOW! This book, or shall I say encyclopedia, is amazing! As the title states, it covers 1894 to the 2001 Oscars. It includes original posters and stills for more movies than you thought existed. I really enjoyed looking at the original posters for all the different styles and seeing how they've changed over the years. Highlights from each year are included as well as Oscar winners (when applicable), and story snippets about random movies that came out that year. A must have!
