Book description
Test your knowledge of film trivia and trivial film with this
compendium of the strange, the sexy and the slightly suspicious
facts from the silver screen.
From the team who brought you The Empire Film Guide, but so
much more than just a film guide, here are all the obscure, indecent
and downright bizarre facts and figures that you never knew about your
favourite films. Discover which country translated GI Jane as
Satan Female Soldier, which Hollywood heartthrob is the lead
singer of 30 Odd Foot of Grunts, and which country takes a bag of
toasted leaf cutter ants to the cinema instead of popcorn!
The Schott's Miscellany of movies, packed full of unusual
facts, figures and lists, as well as explanations of filmmaking
terminology and a list of all the various camera shots - the 'shot
miscellany'. With the Empire Movie Miscellany you will know
your Oscar Hosts from your Monty Python French insults, and never be
short of small talk again!
