Bemerkung:

Einband stark berieben u. etwas gewölbt; innen gut. - Englisch. // THE general pattern I have followed in the compilation of this fourth annual FILM REVIEW is, by and large, identical with that I used in the previous volume. You will of course find minor differences in the make-up and presentation; certain sections have been reduced or even deleted in order to make way for other, new features which I feel and hope will prove more generally popular. But all the. main features of the book, all those most closely relevant to its object, have been retained in their entirety. This FILM REVIEW again tries to put on record by word and-mainly-by picture, a year in the cinema ; the films of 1947 together with a glance at some of those you will see in 1948. You will again find in the following pages a critical note, full cast, director, and other details of every film released in this country during the past twelve months ; you will again find photographs of scenes from the majority if not all the more important productions. For that is the main purpose of FILM REVIEW, to give you a complete and convenient reference of the year's films, presenting this reference in as pleasant and entertaining a fashion as possible. ?
