In this uproarious, offbeat book, Roeper gives us a whole new set of critical lenses for assessing the movies and the people and the industry that make them. With his characterisitic acerbic wit, he weaves short essays with lists that work together to explain where Hollywood succeeds - and where it so often frustrates, disappoints, and fails us. But while Roeper devotes most of the book to mockery and ridicule, this book is, in the end, a love letter to film.
