In this panoramic guide by one of the world's most knowledgeable
movie enthusiasts, Cyrus Ghani reviews more than six hundred and
fifty of the big screen's finest offerings. An international lawyer
and eminent historian, Ghani has lived on three continents and is
fluent in several languages, affording him a uniquely broad
perspective on cinema. His love affair with movies began, he says,
at the age of eight and has lasted a lifetime. My Favorite Films is
the result -- the work of an avid fan, keenly insightful, highly
informative, and happily free of the arcane terminology and
analysis of academic film criticism. In these pages, Ghani moves
from early silent classics like Buster Keaton's The General and
Charlie Chaplin's City Lights to the films of Billy Wilder and John
Huston, the Ealing Studios capers, famed Ernst Lubitsch romantic
comedies, the countless, finely-crafted films by Max Ophuls, and
recent hits like The Silence of the Lambs and L.A. Confidential --
a journey of exploration that will excite and delight film
aficionados and occasional viewers alike.
