Gebruikersrecensie - Diana Duncan - GoodreadsVery entertaining reviews of 1,000 films. He introduced me to many that I'd never heard of. Thomson is most entertaining when describing films that he included though he personally loathes them such as The Sound of Music. Volledige recensie lezen
Review: "Have You Seen...?": A Personal Introduction to 1,000 Films
Gebruikersrecensie - James - GoodreadsI pick up this book whenever I see a movie mentioned in it or am looking for one to watch - as good to disagree with as to admire.

Gebruikersrecensie - Gordon Howard - GoodreadsA very good reference book for 1,000 films selected by this critic.

Each film gets a page, and a review, good, bad, or conflicted. Volledige recensie lezen

Gebruikersrecensie - Michelle - GoodreadsHe's a mean one, that 'Dick' Thomson, but he is one talented and eloquent son of a bitch. Now at the very top of my list for that arbitrary "If you could have dinner with anyone in history who would it be?" list. Volledige recensie lezen
