Screen Writings: Texts and Scripts from Independent Films
ISBN: 9780520080256 / Angielski / Miękka / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "Ask audience to cut the part of the image on the screen that they don't like.

With this collection of reviews, fans of western movies can enjoy taking another special look at some of our favorites with western author Chuck Lewis as he offers us insight and a unique view of the films we like or even those we don't like. We might remember some of them with a nostalgia that doesn't match up with what the movie was all about. We think we know the stories, or what a good job of acting our heroes did, or perhaps gave no thought to the symbolism of the roles they played, but maybe Chuck can suggest something different.
The storylines of these movies are told here in... With this collection of reviews, fans of western movies can enjoy taking another special look at some of our favorites with western author Chuck Lewis...
