description: A work of shimmering glimmering genius - Stephen Fry Gordy LaSures passionate about film. He eats film he drinks film and sometimes hell even watch a film. But most of all he loves talking to people about whether a comely student with low confidence and a father complex a Studio development' exec who doesnt trust his own judgement or the countless people Gordy LaSures encountered in his capacity as the web moderator on an Excessive Sweating Discussion Forum. Gordy LaSures always talking about films and how theyd be a shit ton better if only people would pull their asses out of their ears and listen to Gordy LaSure.The voyage of this book can be categorized as an attempt to understand How In Hell Film Works. Why are some films bad and some films terrible? How come just a handful of films ( Titanic Porkys Dirty Harry ) are any good at all ? Gordyll tell you How and Why and hell give you a slug of Wherefore on the side. And he doesnt shoot from the hip; he shoots from the gut.
