Animated Films - Virgin Film

Animation has never been so popular. The best animated films have combined the latest technology with creativity and a flair for storytelling and are adored by both children and adults. With films such as Monsters, Inc., Shrek and Toy Story capturing the imagination of moviegoers and critics, animated film is enjoying a resurgence unseen since its golden age in the 30s and 40s. From the earliest full-length feature animation, Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, through stop-motion animation and Japanese anime to the advent of CGI, this book takes a critical look at animation through the ages and explores its infinite cinematic possibilities.

Packed with drama and extraordinary anecdotes ... essential reading

—— The Sunday Times

It really is a rollercoaster ride...It’s a proper book. It’s not frothy. It’s not candy flossy...It is no holds barred. You wrote it yourself, it’s so obvious. It’s your voice all the way through

...the book is funny, vivid and even, at times, self-critical...

A rollicking rock'nroll story.

Rod Stewart's fascinating autobiography is a colourful account of an extraordinary life

He gives you, rather generously, a guided tour into not only his life but the life of a rock star

—— Different Scene

What we loved about this book is the feeling that you are having a personal conversation with Rod Stewart … highly recommended!

—— Hot Brands Cool Places

It’s a brisk romp of a read

—— Lynn Barber , The Sunday Times

The tone is droll, surprisingly self-deprecating for such an apparent narcissist, and full of deadpan humour. There are whole chapters here where every page made me laugh out loud, hilarious anecdotes as finely honed as anything in Keith Richards’ Life.

It’s impossible not to warm to him in this account of booze, drugs and blondes…The tales of on-the-road bad behavior…leave nothing to the imagination…his painful admission of how ex-wife Rachel Hunter broke his heart reveal a man happy to wear his heart on his sleeve….And he wears it well…

—— Daily Mail

In Rod Stewart’s raucous, laddish autobiography….his attitude towards women in his life is frequently indefensible but otherwise it’s often laugh-out-load funny

—— Herald

Rod Stewart reveals all in a hilarious and, at times, moving book…A brilliant read—you’ll be hooked.

[Rod] has warm good humour and a nice line in self-deprecation...He wears it well—and tells it even better.

—— Daily Mail

By some distance the most entertaining of last year’s...rock star memoirs.

This book takes readers on an adventure, that is at times deeply moving, through the life of one of the UK's greatest singers.
