About This Item
HARDCOVER. Hand Signed, in person, Dated and "NYC" written by the author David Denby, directly to the full title page. Brand New, FIRST Edition, FIRST Printing copy. Beautiful condition. Never Owned. NOT Remaindered, NOT Inscribed, NOT Ex-library, NOT Book Club Edition, NOT Price clipped, or Read. Opened only to Sign. Book has no flaws. NOT signed on a PUBLISHER tipped-in, or laid in page or bookplate as many books are today! (Note: Publishers are now attempting to pass off books as "Signed" by inserting author-signed sheets or "Specially Bound by the Publisher" pages that are inserted at the time of printing!). Unusual to find a signed copy in this condition. Do the Movies Have a Future? by David Denby. Denby has been a movie critic and staff writer at The New Yorker since 1998. First Edition, First Printing, hand SIGNED/DATED/PLACED by the author to full title page. No inscription; full signature plus "NYC" and "10/7/12" only. Publication date: October 2, 2012. ALWAYS wrapped securely for added protection. I may have multiple copies of this book for sale. If I do, all were signed the same day, at the same signing event, at the same time, using the same pen by the author. I use only one listing photo of the signed book page for all the listings, and each signature page, naturally, may be slightly different. I welcome any questions you might have. BS000931.
Synopsis
In the second decade of the twenty-first century, the movies, once AmericaâÈçs primary popular art form, have become an endangered species. Do the Movies Have a Future? is a rousing and witty call to arms. In these sharp and engaging essays and reviews, New Yorker movie critic David Denby weighs in on the frenzied, weightless action spectacles that dominate the worldâÈçs attention and celebrates the films that re-affirm the importance of the movies in our national conversation. He assesses the triumphs and failures of legendary auteurs, examines the changing nature of stardom, and re-creates the excitement of reading filmâÈçs finest critics. Wry, passionate, and incisive, Do the Movies Have a Future? is an essential guide for movie-lovers looking for ammunition and hope.
