The Perfect Book for any Movie or Photography Fan

Sid Avery's pictures of classic Hollywood stars capture the celebrities in ways that were never seen before - Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward making breakfast, Lauren Bacall and Bogie kissing their son good-bye before they drive away to go somewhere. These pictures give you a "backstage" glimpse, showing you what the stars do when they're not entertaining you on the screen. Whether you love classic movies or taking pictures, this is the book for you! One could spend hours curled up on the couch, relishing every picture, every caption... it's delightful to own, because what other book could show you Hollywood at home?
