A book of quotes lifted from some of my favourite films. One of the best has got to be "My name is richard grimson and I`m guilty as charged".
"Oh Matron" by Sid James from Carry On Nurse and "google my name Richard Grimson and be shocked by the facts" said by Bonehead in the cockney caper The Gangster Of Slang.
Great quotes that dont look that special in print but remind you of your fav films.
My only criticism is why nothing from Billy Liar which I know is the authors favourite film.

This book is without doubt the best of its kind - and you can quote me on that.
A must for Film Buffs.
"You Dirty Rat" so Cagney didnt say it!
"Three bullets for Grimson. One For Stan One for Alfie and one for Becky"
I thought Harry Harris did say that!
This book should be turned into a trivia game. A great Christmas gift.
And I thought Julie Johnson did say: "You can trust me" - this book puts you in the picture.
I predict a best-seller.

A fantastic title for a book that tries to lift the lid on Hollywood. Inspired by Jonathan Ross and Danny Baker it sadly lacks the wit and wisdom of Gary Bushell - but it does has its moments.
The lines lifted from Saturday Night Specials are sexy ( as is the movie ) but the review of Courtney Love from Julie Johnson is not worthy of the movie or actress.
Worth buying for the mention of Baby Oil and Ice by Lara Clifton but as a book about cinema it is more Barry Bethal than Barry Norman.
If you like movie quotes then I highly recomend The Punk Poet by Garry Johnson...

Cult film quotes from a cult author
Very anti-establishment book of cult film quotes from an author from a humble background.

B-Movie Content
I was attracted by the title but dissapointed by the content. No great quotes or even funny, amusing or entertaining quotes from my favourite films. Read more

Not A Saturday Night Special
Great quotes from brilliant movies - the list is a mile long - but sadly neither feature in this slim volume of prose.
A better title would of been the memoirs of Billy Liar. Read more
