I Want To Be The Kitty : Mutts 8
Patrick McDonnell Manufacturer: Andrews McMeel Publishing ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback Similar Items:
ASIN: 0740733052 |
Book Description
I Want to Be the Kitty marks the eighth collection of this award-winning strip and is the follow-up to the successful What Now. As usual, the lovable duo of Earl the dog and his feline friend Mooch can be counted on for charming adventures and out-loud laughs.The sweet and unique friendship of this special dog and kitty comes through in every strip. When Mooch decides one January morning he's going to hibernate by staying in bed all winter, Earl tries desperately to get him out of bed until he finds out himself how "toashty" it is, in the words of Mooch. Next thing you know, Mooch has a bedmate who announces "I'll see ya in March." The two snore though hibernation together-that is, until they are called for dinner.With its expressive art and clever, sometimes philosophical, pet banter, Mutts has built a large and loyal fan base among readers and fellow cartoonists worldwide. The strip has been the discussion topic of Tonight show guests (Brooke Shields), it's earned the National Cartoonists Society's coveted Comic Strip of the Year Award, and it can be found in more than 500 daily newspapers. And now, as a testament to its ever-growing popularity, fans in New Jersey can show their loyalty to the strip-and animal protection-by getting a state license plate complete with Earl and Mooch and the slogan "Animal Friendly." In Mutts, cartoonist Patrick McDonnell has created a classic strip that not only delivers consistent laughs but often a message as well.

adorable as usual.......2005-09-01
Best comic book ever.......2004-07-30
Amazon.com
As one of the few folks who made it out of the National Lampoon alive and writing, P. J. O'Rourke is--a comment that might please him more than most humorists--an elder statesman of American humor. While this says much about the thinness of the field, you gotta give him his props.Modern Manners is good, early O'Rourke, a book that you can read and enjoy without being to the right of Francisco Franco. Who can resist lines such as "A hat should be taken off when you greet a lady and left off for the rest of your life. Nothing looks more stupid than a hat." Or, "Don't wear a tweed jacket to work unless you expect to flush a covey of quail from behind the Xerox machine." Manners are a moving target, and some sections are in need of revision (cocaine really was a big deal, wasn't it?), but don't let that dissuade you. By and large, Modern Manners comes through admirably.

Modern Manners: An Etiquette Book for Rude People.......2002-12-24
This is some of O'Rourke's early musings, but neverthless, it is a very funny, tongue-in-cheek way to spoof manners. As with most if not all of O'Rourke's writings you read it for the levity, flippancy, and jocularity, well you will NOT be disappointed.
Read this book if you want to get away from the serious side of life. As the frivolity takes hold, you'll find that you are more relazed after a really good chuckle.

Who the Devil Made It: Conversations with Legendary Film Directors
Peter Bogdanovich Manufacturer: Ballantine Books ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback Similar Items:
ASIN: 0345404572 Release Date: 1998-02-03 |
Amazon.com
The title comes from an exchange between filmmakers Howard Hawks and Peter Bogdanovich. Asked which directors he preferred, Hawks replied, "I liked almost anybody that made you realize who in the devil was making the picture." Hawks is talking about distinctive directorial personality, about movies that bear the stamp of a filmmaker's character. This book collects 16 interviews Bogdanovich conducted with some of the best directors working in the golden age of Hollywood. All of them, from the famous--Alfred Hitchcock, Fritz Lang, Chuck Jones, and Hawks himself--to the lesser known but equally wonderful Leo McCarey, George Cukor, Josef von Sternberg, and Edgar G. Ulmer--had a remarkable and inimitable style. In their interviews, they provide insight into their craft and a view of Hollywood's golden age that is informative, anecdotal, and often hysterically funny.Book Description
In this fascinating chronicle of Hollywood and the grand art of making movies, Peter Bogdanovich--director, screenwriter, actor, and critic--interviews sixteen legendary directors of the first hundred years of film:Customer Reviews:
Insightful, and Informative........2006-12-10
Critical access to the creative process.......2003-03-25
Contained within these pages is a critical access to the creative process. Each director interviewed (obviously some more than others) provides invaluable insight into the nuts and bolts of film directing. Bogdanovich has compiled with this book, an indispensable historical document that does much to inspire, educate and guide any aspiring film director.
I particularly valued Alan Dwan's insights into the importance of communicating character relationships into the narrative. I have incorperated much of the late director's invaluable advice into my attempts at stage direction.
All in all a must have for anybody interested in directing or gaining insight into the creative process.
Would be better w/o Bogdonavich's endless blather.......2003-03-01
Anyway, if you can tune out Bogdonovich, the rest of the book is okay.
Access to Genius Otherwise Unavailable.......2002-04-30
I rate all of these books Five Stars but probably enjoyed reading Bogdanovich's book the most because the conversations ramble along somewhat messily, as most of my own conversations tend to do, and also because Bogdanovich is more actively involved in the interaction than Emery and Schickel are. As a reader, I feel as if I were really an eavesdropper as 16 directors casually share their opinions, information about specific films and actors, gossip, "war stories," and overall evaluations of their careers' various successes and failures. At no time does Bogdanovich seem intrusive or manipulative. Moreover, perhaps to an extent he did not realize when writing this book, he also reveals a great deal about himself...much of it endearing and some of it admirable. His passion for film making and his appreciation of the great directors are almost palpable. Readers' interests about various directors and their respective films obviously vary. I include myself among those who are die-hard film buffs and so I enjoyed reading every chapter and every word in each chapter. Indeed, each conversation was for this amateur "gourmet" a feast to be consumed with delight and, yes, gratitude.
Forget other movie reference books. Buy this!.......2001-07-14

Ned Rorem Manufacturer: Simon & Schuster ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 0684822490 |
Amazon.com
Ned Rorem at times has seemed to be everywhere in the theatrical and musical scene of the last 70 years: collaborating with Jean Cocteau, writing on the music of Schoenberg and Bartok, producing Noel Coward's plays. These occasional essays contribute a set of personal reflections and reminiscences of these and other artists rather than a sustained critical analysis. Rorem is a highly versatile and idiosyncratic writer, and this is a highly personal collection by someone with a unique view on 20th century high culture.
