Phil Berardelli has been in love with movies ever since his first encounter as a little boy thrilled him and then scared the daylights out of him. In the intervening years, including a six-year stint as a TV movie critic, Phil has seen at least 5,000 titles. Here he has put together a list of his 500+ favorites, which he has separated into 50 categories. He has accompanied each one with informative, witty, and often insightful capsule comments along with bits of trivia, formatting descriptions and, where available, links to online trailers, clips and full-length versions. Newly updated for 2015 and containing 27 new titles – plus a new section of recommended books – Phil's Favorite 500 encompasses everything Phil has learned in over half a century of moviegoing. The list includes something for everyone – adults, couples, children, teens and families – and covers some of the greatest movies ever made, both in the U.S. and elsewhere, as well as some of the cinema's most entertaining clunkers. Many of his choices – and omissions – may surprise you. But in all cases, Phil makes compelling arguments for sampling these titles. If you do sample them, you might just find yourself adding many of them to your own list of favorites. Sampled, browsed, or read from beginning to end, Phil's Favorite 500 reflects a love of the medium that is contagious, and his descriptions will help you view even the most familiar movies in a new and very entertaining way.
Phil Favorite 500 Loves of a Moviegoing Lifetime edition by Phil Berardelli Humor Entertainment eBooks
Whatever role movies play in your life -- whether as pretext for a casual night out or the focus of academic study -- this book is a great reference tool, written with authority and utterly without pretension. You’ll find useful subheadings, grouping Phil’s faves by actor, director, theme, best picture winner, etc. It also happens to be an enormously fun read -- thanks in large part to the quirkier sections, such as “Deliciously Bad” and “Big Stars, But Have You Seen Them In?” For me, the “Little Gems” section is … well, a little gem, one I’ll revisit frequently when I’m looking for just the right, unassuming flick to fit the mood du jour. This is a wonderful collection, reflecting a lot of work and a lot of wit.Product details

Phil Favorite 500 Loves of a Moviegoing Lifetime edition by Phil Berardelli Humor Entertainment eBooks Reviews
This book is a delight to read - almost as entertaining as the movies themselves! I loved reading the commentary of Phil's favorite movies and the trivia facts are wonderful. A must read for anyone who loves movies!
As an author and a former filmmaker who has seen practically every film ever made prior to 1970, I have found "Phil's Favorite 500 Loves of a Moviegoing Lifetime" to be a great reference for rediscovering the best films from movie history.
Not only is the book incredibly informative about every important or original film, it is witty and a pleasure to read. And unlike most modern film guides, it distills the history of great movie-making down to the 500 most significant films, movies that anyone who loves movies must see.
