"I have, by the way, seen 943 of the 1001 movies, and am carefully rationing the remaining titles to prolong my life" Roger Ebert "Both a fun stroll through some all-time favourites, and a guilty reminder of just how many great movies I haven't seen yet..." Aubrey Day, Total Film "As edited by Steven Jay Schneider, it makes for addictive browsing, and likewise features top quality stills." Film Review
