Surrounded by the vibrant colors of the Mediterranean, the cats of Greece pass the breezy afternoons prone in sleepy bliss. No creature has honed the art of the nap as masterfully as the cat, and her5e they achieve new heights in sublime relaxation. Curled in snuggly heaps, stretched across stairs and pathways, reclined in precarious nonchalance on cliff-side walls and rooftops, the cats in this book give themselves entirely to the dreamy pleasures of sun worship. 142 Pgs.

Cross, Robin: Science Fiction Films, New York: Gallery Books, 1985 ; fester Einband / hard cover; Schutzumschlag / dust cover
Science fiction films are now so popular that they are right at the top of the box-office charts. Yet they are not a new phenomenon. having begun just before the turn of the Century. - Science Fiction Films Steps into its time machine and zips right back to the first recorded example of the genre, the 60-second-long The Mechanical Butcher, made in 1898, in which a live pig is manhandled into a large box and comes out the other end converted conveniently into an array of bacon, sausages and spare ribs! Ever since, science fiction has relied on and pushed forward the art of trick photography. relying on a staple diet of such nerve-tingling themes as hostile aliens, brain transplants. exploding planets. and monster-sized insects. Furthermore. the amazing technological advances of the twentieth Century have engendered images on the giant screen which are now that much larger, more fantastic and more spine-chilling than anything seen before. Science Fiction Films comes out of hiding to confront the history of our wildest imaginings, from creatures of the future to some of the most bizarre images ever seen in the cinema. Robin Cross' original and always lively contributions to the literarv archive of the cinema include The Big Book of' B Movies: or How Low Was My Budget, The Worst Movie Posters of All Time, The Hollywood History of World War II, The Bible According to Hollywood and The Big Book of British Films. He has also contributed to Movie Mastermind, The Movie Star's Story and Hollywood Reporter Star Profiles. His nominations for the greatest science fiction films of all time include: ° Metropolis, filmed in 1926, over 16 months and with a cast of 37,000, providing a horrific vision of the end of the Century when gigantic bleak cities are packed with massive numbers of robot-like workers. ° Invasion of the Bodysnatchers, when the inhabitants of a sleepy Californian town are remorselessly replaced by automaton-like simulacra hatched from gigantic seed pods. ° 2001, a dazzling technical triumph which explores the unimaginable forces controlling our destiny. ° Star Wars, which revolutionized sci-fi pushing back the boundaries of the genre as no other film has ever done. ° E.T. The Extra Terrestrial, which confirmed director Steven Spielberg as one of the most exciting science fiction film makers in the history of the cinema. - Buyer outside Germany: Please ask for shipping costs and terms of payment.
