Hey gang, I searched multiple times but couldn't find anything so I hope there isn't a thread already.
If there's one thing I love most about HTF its the passion and knowledge of film. I'm always learning some new trivia from a favourite film or being introduced to a star I'm not familiar with. So my question is, what are some of the best books about film. This can be about the process of filmmaking itself or the history of a genre, informative biographies, etc. I have a bunch already that I've discovered over the years but I know there's a lot more out there. Among the titles I already have are A Star Is Born: The Making of the 1954 Movie and Its 1983 Restoration, Making Movies by Sidney Lumet, Hitchcock/Truffault, Easy Riders Raging Bulls, Memo from David O. Selznick, Lost Films by Frank Thompson, Conversations with the Great Moviemakers of Hollywood's Golden Age by George Stevens Jr., and my newest purchase M-G-M's Greatest Musicals by Hugh Fordin.
I know there's a lot more out there just waiting to be read.
