Got mine yesterday, haven't really dipped into it yet except to read the introduction (that Indiewire piece to which Jameson linked is the intro, possibly edited).The best news is that thanks to...

It's not really that different than the other editions , except that more films have been added. They also have small markers at the bottom of each listing...telling what media the film is on, if any....

Tom, can you tell us some of the movies that CHFBers in particular will be interested in that have been added since the last edition?  I bought my copy at Barnes and Noble yesterday, but really...

Upon reading that they added some new movies but had to take out (how dare they?) some old ones, that's when I quit buying the annual edition.

Re: Leonard Maltin's Classic Movie Guide: From the Silent Era Through 1965

This is so interesting to me, because a very long time ago -- it probably was as early as 1968 -- I began to realize that things (all things, basically) were "different than they used to be." I began...

STRANGE ADVENTURE was me, yes! I got no guidelines. From a lifetime of reading these things, I knew what was needed. And if I went overboard length-wise or anything-wise, I'm sure they "fixed" 'em.

I'm another one who divides the 1960s into pre-1965/post-1965.  Pre-1965 feels like a Technicolor, air-conditioned, Beach Boys continuation of the 1950s while post-1965 feels all peace/love, hippies,...

I added slightly to a few of the existing ones, that's all. Most of my reviews are Poverty Row movies of the '30s and '40s (including lotsa spooky ones) which, even though Sinister Cinema, Alpha,...
