Hayden Book Company, Inc. Rochelle Park, N.J. 1971 xii, 276 p.: 41 in-text illustrations; 23 cm. (9 inches). Paperback with illustrated color front cover. Includes index of film titles "The book is a gold mine for teachers. Maynard knows films, for one thing. But he knows them from more perspectives than those of the movie buff. He knows them as wrought, lit, and shaped experiences, part of the social scene of the immediate past (beginning, say, around 1915) and the present, as vital forces in our lives, as things that have affected the way people see themselves and other people and the world outside the front door. But the book's richness is not only in its knowledge of film as art, entertainment, social force and reflection of actualities and fantasies in our world. If a book can have a perceiving ear, this one has: an ear for a student's concerns, worries, questions, his [or her] eagerness to wrestle with problems he [or she] can take seriously" [from the introduction by David Mallery, Director of Studies, National Association of Independent Schools] All text in this auction description is the sole property of Classic Books and Ephemera and may not be copied without permission from Classic Books and Ephemera.
