Rooney Eats It! A Brit's Take on Pimps, Child Deaths and Other Fun Movie Stuff, Paperback / softback Book

Rooney Eats It! A Brit's Take on Pimps, Child Deaths and Other Fun Movie Stuff Paperback / softback

Part of the Ice Dog Movie Guide series

Paperback / softback

Out of stock

Description

Chick flicks. Brokeback Mountain. Bollywood. Superhero movies. Sophie's Choice. Sandra Bullock. Avant-garde musicals...

 

If this sort of stuff is your cup of tea, then this isn't the book for you. Blokey film enthusiast Dave Franklin instead concentrates on the politically incorrect delights of Coffy, Magnum Force and Boogie Nights while paying tribute to the likes of Christopher Walken, Paul Schrader, 70's disaster movies and Brian De Palma. There's even some tongue-in-cheek appreciation of the God-like Steven Seagal. So settle back, forget about identity politics and the prevailing lefty narrative, and immerse yourself in a book that values celluloid entertainment above all else.

 

Or as Rob Reiner says at the start of the immortal Spinal Tap: "Enough of my yakking. Let's boogie."
