Books by David Thomson

David Thomson is, among many other things, author of The New Biographical Dictionary of Film, now in its fourth edition. His recent books include a biography of Nicole Kidman, Fan Tan (a novel written in collaboration with Marlon Brando) and The Whole Equation: A History of Hollywood. Born in London, he now lives in San Francisco. A very personal and hugely entertaining look at the greatest films ever made, David Thomson's Have You Seen... offers some of the most moving, perceptive and ridiculous precis of films ever to be put to paper. From being in raptures over Anatahan and utterly nauseated by The Sound of Music, Thomson's witty and informed look at over 1,000 films is the ideal companion to the silver screen.
