Florey's Books welcomes local author Dennis Willis as he discusses his new book "American Popcorn: Hollywood and the War on Common Sense"
***Saturday, July 14th, 2-4:30pm***
About the book:
From all-too revealing trailers and remakes, to over-priced fuzzy 3D movies, is there no end to the condescending ways the big studios will try to sell you their latest blockbusters? American Popcorn is a compilation of scathing, honest commentaries from film critic Dennis Willis on a wide variety of subjects, including the broken MPAA rating system, ill-conceived movie star vanity projects, and how tough it is to be a Star Wars fan. Funny and insightful, you'll never look at movies the same way again!
