'Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful . . . What Thomson does not know or feel about films is not worth knowing or feeling' Nicholas Lezard, Guardian

This is veteran film writer David Thomson's personal, irreverent, hilarious and utterly original take on the 1,000 films he has most loved - and hated - from esteemed classics to forgotten curiosities, guilty pleasures to noir treats, horror gems to kitsch disasters. The result is probably the most enjoyable film book you will ever read (and you'll never think about The Sound of Music in the same way again).

Praise for 'Have You Seen...?'

Delightful ... the world's leading sage about film ... It's like having the most film-literate pal you can imagine sitting beside you in a multiplex

John Walsh, Independent

This book sets the bar. There isn't a more intelligent, insightful and provocative guide to individual movies in the world

Nigel Andrews, Financial Times

A dazzlingly authoritative treat ... crammed with insight and epigram

Geoff Dyer, Observer

Eccentric, brilliant, scholarly, perverse, witty, egocentric and infuriating, sometimes all at once

Philip French, Time Out

A treasure trove for film buffs ... there is probably no finer contemporary writer on what makes the movies so unmissable

Allan Hunter, Herald
