GreenCine Movie Primers
Has screenshotanyone noticed that the offerings from Hollywood have been a little, uh... thin recently? Well, instead of trying to tough out another Son of Freddy Meets Jason IV: The (Possibly) Final Conflict, why not get educated on the history of cinema by immersing yourself in these introductory essays? Both straightforward and analytical, each primer lays out a roadmap for exploring such popular genres as science fiction, film noir, and Hong Kong action, as well as niche areas like Italian horror, Iranian New Wave, and, sniff, weepies. Every film cited links to a nifty synopsis and user reviews. So whether you're a fan of John Ford, John Waters, or John Doe, read, reflect, and relish till your eyes spin. And oh, by the way, there's also a section on sex in the movies, but you're probably not interested in that. (in Movies & Film)
