The Voyeur's Guide to the Movies

Forget Les Cahiers de Cinema. Forget the auteur theory. Forget subtleties of lighting or narrative technique or the great moments of screen acting. This book tells you what you need to know before you shell out good money for a cinema seat or settle down in front of your video. How much bum and tit are you going to see? And whose? Covering (or rather uncovering) a wide range of films from the obvious (like Beyond the Valley of the Dolls) to the more subtle (like Zardoz) and the real connoisseur stuff (like Walkabout) THE VOYEUR'S GUIDE TO THE CINEMA is the first really useful film guide in the history of the cinema.
