Some Books I Bought in England
Trainspotting by Murray Smith. No, not the novel by Irvine Welsh. This is a study of the cultural impact of the film adaptation of Trainspotting. Yep, I'm going back to my CultStuds days. I read part of it in London and it's very interesting. It makes me want to watch the movie again. (If you've been reading since last August, you probably know that I have a conflicted relationship with the film Trainspotting).
Bollywood by Ashok Banker. This is a handy little guide to the Bollywood film genre. The book covers Bollywood themes, music, cultural impact, and talks about specific movies as well. It's part of a very cool series, Pocket Essentials Film. I could have bought almost all of the books in this series, they were so cool.
Film Music by Paul Tonks. Another handy little guide from the Pocket Essentials series. I especially like the reference section on how to start a CD library of film scores. Not that I need any help with that, but still, it's cool to read about.
