At last A film and video guide for the true lover of cinema -- focusing on international and independent, as well as the best of the mainstream.

The TLA Film and Video Guide is the first truly original, absolutely indispensable guide for the true lover of cinema.

It also features:
-- Nearly 9,000 films reviewed
-- Five comprehensive indexes -- by star, director, theme, genre, and country of origin
-- Over 450 photos
-- A listing of all major film awards
-- A four star rating system
-- The most comprehensive selection of International Cinema from over 50 countries

From the team of editors assembled by TLA, the finest name in video retailing and a growing chain of rental stores, comes the latest edition of the film and video guide for everyone whose tastes range from Rashomon to Showgirls, from Berlin Alexander-platz to Bringing Up Baby.
