It's a brilliantly researched account of the making of the five films (The Graduate, In the Heat of the Night, Guess Who's Coming to Dinner, Bonnie and Clyde and, bizarrely, Doctor Dolittle) nominated for the 1967 best picture Oscar; it's also, as a consequence, about race, censorship and American popular culture right on the cusp of profound change. I can't think of a better book about the process of film-making.' Nick Hornby 'Absolutely wonderful. An extraordinary book that combines social and pop history in an unputdownable volume.' Richard E. Grant'Impeccably researched, engagingly written and remarkably readable.'***** Empire
