Аннотация к книге "Movie Posters: The History of Cinema from the Origins to the Present" Dacre R.: This book focuses on some of the finest movie posters ever produced — some because of the originality of their design, others because of their success to draw attention and make a film seem unmissable. They were produced for films which exemplify significant stages in the history of world cinema. The book constitutes a schematic overview of that history stretching from the pioneering silent days to today's blockbuster franchise world.
