Title: It's only a movie!
Description: "What happened to the movies? Elevated from their origins as nickelodeon amusements to the pantheon of the arts by critics in the 1950s and 60s, they are often derided today as senseless entertainment. Even Roger Ebert has lamented, "An art form will forever be in a separate category if you can attend it while eating Twizzlers." In It's Only a Movie! Raymond J.

Haberski traces the rise and fall of film as art, from its early twentieth-century beginnings to the modern age of the financial blockbusters."--BOOK JACKET.
