Description Shipping & Returns Reviews Description In the good seats: Essays on film is a collection featuring some of the most talented writers working today, setting their sights on whats so alluring and moving about film and cinema. A childhood movie encountered on the big screen, a favourite celluloid instant, a resonating discovery, an awkward first date; the threadbare seats, the click and whirr of the projector, the sense of scale expanding. Each essayist in this book unearths those particularly breathless and unforgettable moments when their lives were touched by film. Like a projection of light beaming across a darkened hall, In the good seats, pulls us closer to those flickers of magic that film and cinema usher forth. With contributions by Darran Anderson, Maggie Armstrong, Dodie Bellamy, Susannah Dickey, Maria Fusco, Francis Halsall, Daisy Lafarge, Michael Magee, Ian Maleney, Toye Oladinni, K Patrick, Devika Ponnambalam, Ali Smith, and Cathy Sweeney Shipping & Returns Reviews
