Editorials

From Barnes & Noble

There are reference books that wait on the shelf for the proper moment and there are reference tools that you use, use, and use. Leonard Maltin's movie guides have been delighting film buffs since 1969; so much so, in fact, that they became annuals in 1989. These mega-mammoth (1664 page) trade and mass-market paperbacks prove the series worth with just the information you need on more than 17,000 flicks: capsule reviews, date of release, running time, and MPAA ratings. The latest edition contains more than 350 new entries, plus a handy index of actors and directors. Keep it right next to the remote.
