Description:
<b>“Oh! What a wonderful list. Bill Newcott's top 100 makes you want to curl up with a stack of DVD’s and revisit Hollywood’s best.” — Arch Campbell, Broadcast Film Critics Association</b>
<b>
</b><b>“...a treasure trove of sterling and often delightfully offbeat recommendations for discerning moviegoers, from the beginnings of film right up the present.” — Peter Rainer, author of <i>Rainer on Film: Thirty Years of Film Writing in a Turbulent and Transformative Era</i></b>
Finally, an end to the old complaint, “There’s nothing to watch!” Since 2002, AARP’s Movies for Grownups has been celebrating movies with special appeal for the 50+ audience through reviews, film festivals, private screenings, and a weekly TV series. Now, in the first-ever Movies for Grownups book, MFG creator Bill Newcott selects the 100 essential films for those who love great cinema.
The collection includes a variety of classics, from <i>Gone with the Wind</i> and <i>Casablanca </i>to new favorites like <i>Capote</i> and <i>The King’s Speech</i>. You’ll also find every film that has won the coveted trophy for the year’s Best Movie for Grownups, chosen by the editors of <i>AARP the Magazine.</i> Then there are the hidden gems—films you may never have heard of, but ones you’ll never forget once you see them, thanks to this comprehensive, concisely written collection.
