"This book was an awesome film book. All about why film directors and producers do what they do and how. It delves deeply into the art of making films by explianing why elements of a film are made in the manner in which they are made.
The only holdback about the whole thing, was that, even though the book definately knew it's stuff, it's examples came from films that weren't the best examples for the elements they were explianing."
