He is betting you have been hankering for a little courage and love, spiced with pride and faithfulness, and that you might find a turn to nobility and truth more to your tastes. This book of movie reviews samples the classics and more contemporary selections. You will discover the author's observations and thoughts about 'TWELVE YEARS A SLAVE' as well as Amiri Baraka's 'THE DUTCHMAN'.

Produktbeschreibung
The author wishes to offer you more than the standard fare of Sex and Violence that normally comes with your popcorn, burgers and fries. He is betting you have been hankering for a little courage and love, spiced with pride and faithfulness, and that you might find a turn to nobility and truth more to your tastes. This book of movie reviews samples the classics and more contemporary selections. You will discover the author's observations and thoughts about 'TWELVE YEARS A SLAVE' as well as Amiri Baraka's 'THE DUTCHMAN'. We will examine 'EDISON' with Spencer Tracy and David Mamet's 'OLEANNA'. James Coburn will take us dancing and prancing through death and danger as 'OUR MAN FLINT' and we will have a front row seat to Klaatu's stern lecture to humanity in THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL'. After a round trip through 'THE FORBIDDEN KINGDOM' with Jackie Chan and Jett Li, we will at length settle down to a glass of milk and a slice of apple pie with 'YOUNG TOM EDISON'. Finally, with all this under our belt, we might at last find ourselves meditating and contemplating upon a route TOWARD A NEW CINEMA...

Autorenporträt
The author wishes to share with all interested parties the tall tales of one Solomon Grant as he corresponds with us from various places upon the Earth and outside its bounds. Whether saving a loved one from con artists posing as God, or serving on behalf of a fallen lady by playing Chess with the Devil, the author feels you could do worst than attending to the chronicles of this man. A denizen of Detroit, he takes up residence at the garbage dump and shares his strange adventures with all comers. This is the latest offering from the author of 'ALPHONSO GENTLE' and 'TALES TIMES TEN'. We have here a duet of three-act plays about an old writer in Detroit. He will present to you characters of all stripes jumping feet first into every kind of devilment and taking charge in solving problems peculiar to both Heaven and Hell. Here is your ticket to adventure. I heartily recommend you take it.
