Films of endearment : a mother, a son and the '80s films that defined us / by Koresky, Michael,1979-author.;
Includes bibliographical references.Michael Koresky's most formative memories were simple ones. A movie rental. A bowl of popcorn. And a few shared hours with his mother. Through the films they watched together, he gained insight into his mother's perspective and the values she hoped to instill. Decades later and now a successful film critic, Koresky set out on a journey with his mother to discover more about their shared cinematic past. They rewatched ten films, one from every year of the '80s, each featuring women in leading roles. Films like 9 to 5, Terms of Endearment, The Color Purple and Working Girl played a powerful role in Michael's developing consciousness as a gay man and helped solidify an unspoken bond between mother and son.

Cinema speculation / by Tarantino, Quentin,author.;
"The long-awaited first work of nonfiction from the author of the #1 New York Times bestselling Once Upon a Time in Hollywood: a deliriously entertaining, wickedly intelligent cinema book as unique and creative as anything by Quentin Tarantino. In addition to being among the most celebrated of contemporary filmmakers, Quentin Tarantino is possibly the most joyously infectious movie lover alive. For years he has touted in interviews his eventual turn to writing books about films. Now, with Cinema Speculation, the time has come, and the results are everything his passionate fans--and all movie lovers--could have hoped for. Organized around key American films from the 1970s, all of which he first saw as a young moviegoer at the time, this book is as intellectually rigorous and insightful as it is rollicking and entertaining. At once film criticism, film theory, a feat of reporting, and wonderful personal history, it is all written in the singular voice recognizable immediately as QT's and with the rare perspective about cinema possible only from one of the greatest practitioners of the artform ever."--
