These films, they argue, deserve a larger audience and for their place in movie history to be reconsidered. But the conversations? tangents, diversions, and side trips provide as much insight into the directors? own approach to moviemaking as into the film they?re discussing. The filmmakers are the perfect hosts, often setting the tone, managing expectations, and giving advice about how you should watch each movie. They?re often brutally honest about a film?s shortcomings or the reasons why it was lost in the first place. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in; MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in; MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in; MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Best Film You?ve Never Seen\u003c\/i\u003e is not only a guide to some badly overlooked movies but a bold attempt to rewrite film history. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Zephyr Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51041400553815,"sku":"9781569768389","price":14.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781569768389.jpg?v=1750950123","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/best-film-youve-never-seen-9781569768389","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
