The meaning of life in movies

Here's an interesting collection of essays, mixing film criticism and memoir, drawn from the author's blog, Of Font and Film. Lister has a keen eye for the way a film can make an emotional connection with its viewer. This isn't your run-of-the-mill movie-review book: with a few exceptions, you won't find Hollywood blockbusters here; Lister prefers to talk about smaller films, movies that have touched him on a personal level. Some of the essays are (mostly) traditional reviews; others take a movie and use it as a jumping-off point for a consideration of a genre as a whole (romantic comedy, for example), or for a reflection on the way the film impacted the author's own life.
