A MUST-HAVE FOR FILM BUFFS,
By
This review is from: Film Posters of the '40s: The Essential Movies of the Decade (Hardcover)
Just think about it - what are the movies you enjoy watching over and over again? "Casablanca" will probably top most lists. Which movie does your family gather to watch each holiday season? The feel-good "It's A Wonderful Life," of course. "Citizen Kane" is probably in the running for one of your all-time favorites, as is "Gilda" with an unforgettable performance by Rita Hayworth.As you may know, all of these films are from the 40s, often called the golden age of Hollywood. And now, in this collectible volume are found the stunning movie posters that served as advertisements in those days. There's "Key Largo" with Bogart and Bacall about to lock lips; "The Maltese Falcon" boasting the sinister stare of Peter Lorre, and what was steamier than "The Postman always Rings Twice" with Lana Turner and John Garfield? "Film Posters of the 40s" holds 118 full color illustrations of these posters highlighting your favorite stars in their most memorable roles. It's a must-have for film and entertainment buffs.

I have all the books by Tony Nourmand and all i can really say is that if you are a fan of movies and you appreciate art then this collection is for you! I have also discovered many movies that i had never seen until i saw the poster in Tony's books. Great stuff!

This is a wonderful book in the series with wonderful reproductions of the posters of the decade. Makes a wonderful gift for someone who loves movies as well as a great coffee table book. Highly recommended
Great to see the evolution of the vintage movie poster and how different posters from around the world compare. 0 of 1 people found the following review helpful:

9 weeks and I don't have the book yet,
By aeb - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Film Posters of the '40s: The Essential Movies of the Decade (Hardcover)
Why does Amazon advertize items that they do not have? I ordered this on November 21, 2006. Today, January 31, 2007, I still do not have the book. Also, this review screen required me to rate the item - so I chose 1 star. You can't rate something you don't have.
