review 1: This was a loaner book I rec'd from someone anonymous. I really liked the way the book began, the first few chapters Emmett (the author) had a great way of explaining how his love for movies and movie going began (each chapter also had the name of a movie as well). As the book continued I sort of missed that, Emmett would only tell us more about his life and less about the movie the chapter was about. I did also enjoy a sort of behind the scenes look the author gave us into "Hollywood" life and how he was able to score his small roll in the movie Titanic. I you love movies, this would be a book I would recommend, but I suggest maybe borrow it from the library if possible. I would not spend my money on it.
review 2: This book just starts out as a winning combina... moretion for me -- my love of books, film & british humor. This is what elevates it to a 4 star from what otherwise might be a 3 star read for me. I thought the concept was really unique ~ and the fact that the narrator's story is based on his actual life vs. being a fictional account was also a plus. Also - not sure the age of the author -- but the movies of his youth that he writes about are the same as the movies of mine. less
