[Dustin Wilson V · Rating 3 out of 5]

The annoying trend of constantly referencing information we have yet to learn (I.E. we'll talk about this more in Chapter 8) may hold the experience of reading Between the Scenes back significantly. However when one examines it as a specified filmic study without those formal trappings there's a lot of great insight to be found in this absurdly oblong book.
