Pithy put-downs, hard-boiled snarlings, words of love and regret… ALL THE BEST LINES presents 500 memorable movie quotes, embracing both one-liners ('My name is Pussy Galore') and slices of snappy dialogue from the pictures. From golden-age legends like Ben Hecht and Billy Wilder to modern masters Woody Allen and the Coen brothers, quotes are arranged under timeless themes such as Dreams, Friends, Libido and Memories.

Packed with anecdotes as well as special features on some of the most intriguing aspects of movie-making history: from the career of Marilyn Monroe to the making of Apocalypse Now; from the art of the screenwriter to the art of the cameo.

Illustrated with full-colour photographs. This is a book for anyone who loves the movies.

Please note: This ebook is hand-crafted. Well not quite, but it is certainly a cut above the rest; great care has been taken to make sure it is both beautiful and highly functional.
