Description
Imagine your favorite movies as vintage books! This clever collection features iconic films, cult classics, and box office hits brilliantly designed to look like original book covers--a delight for film fanatics and bibliophiles alike.

A good book cover is evocative, emotional, and revealing. It lures readers in and invites them to begin a journey with just a hint of the story that is about to unfold. They are true works of art.

Though many great movies are based on books, many more have a different creative beginning. Good Movies as Old Books features more than 200 beloved films reimagined as book covers, giving readers the distinct pleasure of seeing a favorite film transformed into cover art. Through masterful design, art, and typography, graphic designer Matt Stevens has created original vintage-style covers across film genres and eras of book design. From Braveheart to Parasite, Do the Right Thing to Top Gun, this page-turning assortment of box office hits, acclaimed indies, golden era gems, and cult classics will inspire you to discover new favorites or rethink the films you've seen a thousand times. A whole new way to celebrate the movies we love, this is the perfect gift for bibliophiles and cinephiles.
