Book excerpt: Peter Bradshaw's finest film reviews--the good, the bad, and the ugly. Peter Bradshaw is an excellent film reviewer for intelligent, curious filmgoers. He's a true journalist who has served as The Guardian's film critic for 20 years and who understands what his readers want to know. His reviews carry his deep experience, knowledge, and understanding of film lightly. Films That Made Me... allows Peter Bradshaw to share his knowledge and guidance directly with readers. His reviews are the substance of this book--from 20 years-worth of Guardian reviewing. Selections are themed, each with a personalized entry-point introduction. Sample contents include: Films that make me sad. Films that make me laugh. Films that make me think. Films that made me feel. Films that make me run for the hills. Films that I want to show to my son. Films that make me think about my parents. Films that make me squirm (in a good way). Films that make me scared. Films that make me Google the real-life people involved (and think about true-life stories.) Films that have me on the edge of my seat.
