Great Review for John DiLeo’s SCREEN SAVERS II

John DiLeo’s new title SCREEN SAVERS II: My Grab Bag of Classic Movies just received a great review at the Internet Review of Books. Reviewer Elizabeth McCullough begins with how she used to select movies to rent from her local video store—remember the pre-imdb.com/Netflix era. In the current world of IMDB, Netflix and the host of other online movie outlets, it’s much easier to find a movie than it is to decide on what movie to watch. Add movie historian John DiLeo to the IMDB/Netflix/online mix and now you have a great resource to assist you in selecting films for your movie queue as the reviewer suggests.

Of course, the reviewer has discovered the reason why I love having John DiLeo as an author:

DiLeo has the gift of discovering, describing, and explaining those splendid, dazzling moments in a way that makes you appreciate the movie more deeply than you would have otherwise.

Yes, those of us who love classic movies are on an endless quest of discovery which is why the reviewer and I enjoy John DiLeo’s special gift:

DiLeo also specializes in getting you to take a second look at actors whose names you know but whose work you’re probably not familiar with.

SCREEN SAVERS II: MY GRAB BAG OF CLASSIC MOVIES is John DiLeo’s most recent book. SCREEN SAVERS II is one part classic movie essays, one part blogs from screensaversmovies.com, and one part classic movie trivia quizzes. Now available in paperback from Amazon.com and BarnesandNoble.com, and it’s available as an ebook for the Kindle, the Nook and the iPad.
