David Wood (3) (1944–)

This is a kindly written book, a loving look back at the filming of a truly seminal film produced 50 years ago. The author is one of its stars and portrays the shooting quite head on. There is little analysis in this little tome. Yet, hearing about Lindsay Anderson's dictator-less way of directing and how the sequel to If.... could have been shaped, it's fairly interesting.

I tremendously liked the book The BFG by Roald Dahl. The illustrations enhanced and put a lot of the settings into perspective. While the characters were not believable, the characteristics and personalities of the characters are. The writing was extremely engaging with all the interesting terms and vocabulary that the giant used. The big idea of the book was to not judge a book by its cover.
