Description

What are the dying words of Charles Foster Kane in Citizen Kane?

In The Matrix, does Neo take the blue pill or the red pill?

From Steven Spielberg to Martin Scorsese, Alfred Hitchcock to Werner Herzog test your knowledge of the movies with this lively and entertaining puzzle book.

Packed with history, facts, puzzles and images of all the most famous movies, stars and director, it will make the perfect Christmas gift.

Covering all genres of film from horror to sci-fi, superhero to art house, the book will suit both film aficionados, who know the details of every Godfather film, to those who just love a weekend blockbuster.

Organized thematically, there are sections on all the key genres of film from all periods. The puzzles are designed so that you can work out the answers if you don't know them already, so you don't have to be a film expert in order to enjoy the book.

Written by Ian Smith, with the puzzles generated by expert puzzle creator, Gareth Moore.

Absolutely Fantastic

This was my first time ordering from SciFier but it definitely won't be my last. When it comes to buying books online the packaging needs to be good, SciFier were great they used bubble wrap to make sure they arrived perfect. Amazing range of books that majority are lower priced than most book retailers. Wonderful service, I'll definitely be recommending to everyone. Thank you.

My favourite pick for manga

Great delivery to EU, no issues with customs. Very good packaging. A nice selection of manga and, so far, the best prices I could find :)
