A Life Through Movies
Wit and heartbreak collide in a memoir of a life intertwined with an obsession with film. A `Fever Pitch' for cinema lovers. `This book will consider the influence of movies on one life, the interaction of celluloid fantasy and the growth of a personality.
It's not just a film buff's record of his enthusiasms. It's about how some films do, weirdly, change your life.' Beginning with his first cinema outing, `The Mutiny on the Bounty', and tracing his passion through his growing-up years to adulthood, John Walsh weaves together his own life experiences with his rapturous dependence on key moments in film.
The result is a funny, personal, loving account of the magic and drama of the silver screen and its ultimate, all-encompassing power to become larger than (real) life.
