Description

Thomson’s moments range from a set of Eadward Muybridge’s pioneering photographs to sequences in films from the classic – Citizen Kane, Sunset Boulevard and The Red Shoes – to the unexpected – The Piano Teacher, Burn After Reading – immersing the reader via images and the author’s narrative. In Moments that Made the Movies , with its combination of text and image, David Thomson can focus in on one scene, or even a few seconds of celluloid.
