All the info on your movies

A great reference for when you're checking out movies in the last 60 years or so. Ratings (his own-I don't necessarily agree with all of them and you might not either) for movies, data on when they were made, who starred in them, plot summary. etc. If you are a movie buff but just don't have room in your brain for all the data, don't sweat it--this can be a handy book to have when you have a question about a movie and you need simple answers.

Finding a review of every movie.

I always buy Leonard Maltin's paperback Movie Guide every year. I have found that it contains a review of every movie I look for (except, obviously movies that were released after the publication date). Years ago I bought two other rather large movie guide books, only to find that they were not nearly as complete and comprehensive as Maltin's Book. My only complaint with the paperback version is the size of the print - a little small for my 70-year-old eyes. Next year, I will visit one of the larger booksellers and ask if there is a version with larger print.

Covers All The True Classics

Whether from the '30s, or more recent years, average and serious movie buffs alike will always find most anything they're looking for here. I purchase a copy about every other year, and have been extremely pleased with the huge volume of entries. I even underline every film I can remember ever having seen in my lifetime. Just a hobby. I find the larger edition somewhat easier to read, and makes for much better underlining.
