Description
Movie Love in the Fifties"What I set out to do is to help you see movies better, to experience them more deeply and sharply and richly," says James Harvey. And his critical method reading a movie moment by moment, scene by scene reveals new layers of meaning in even the most familiar films. See how 1940s film noir evolves into 1950s melodrama; how the femme fatale of the 1940s (think Barbara Stanwyck) becomes blander and blonder (think Doris Day) and then younger and sexier
"What I set out to do is to help you see movies better, to experience them more deeply and sharply and richly," says James Harvey. And his critical method-reading a movie moment by moment, scene by scene-reveals new layers of meaning in even the most familiar films. See how 1940s film noir evolves into 1950s melodrama; how the femme fatale of the 1940s (think Barbara Stanwyck) becomes blander and blonder (think Doris Day) and then younger and sexier (yes, Marilyn); and how the new boy-men-Clift, Brando, Dean-finally steal the show. Harvey also discusses the directors: Hitchcock, Ophuls, Kazan, Welles. Comprehensive, vivid, and charismatic, Movie Love in the Fifties is a fresh look at the films, directors, and actors of a dynamic decade. "Whether he's escorting us through Nicholas Ray's Bitter Victory, Douglas Sirk's Imitation of Life, Orson Welles's Magnificent Ambersons, or any one of a dozen other great films from the period, Harvey lends us an astuteness of analysis and a power of observation that we couldn't have had on our own." -- Wendy Lesser, The American ProspectBinding Type: Paperback

No more dry mouth at night!
These stick to your gums and keep your mouth moist all night. This makes it easier for me to sleep. I got them on the recommendation of my dental hygienist and have been getting better checkups since I started using them. It keeps your mouth moist which retards the growth of germs.

Great product
These are excellent. They work very well and help ensure a good night's sleep without a dry mouth. Ans the taste is good, unlike Berry Smoothie which is absolutely disgusting.
