Nonfiction Book Review: Frankly My Dear...The Ultimate Movie Quote Quiz Book
Reviewed by Sally Murphy

Classic lines from classic films.



Do you know which classic movies the following quotes come from?

1. My father taught me many things…Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer
2. Does anyone else feel like having a little giggle when I mention my friend Bigus Dickus?
3. Perhaps it is good to have a beautiful mind, but an even greater gift is to discover a beautiful heart.

Frankly My dear offers movie buffs and would-be movie buffs the chance to brush up on their movie trivia. There are more than 700 classic movie quotes, from a wide range of movies, old and recent.

The book is set out with a set of seven quotes on each right hand page, and the answers (which movie each quote belongs to) on the reverse left hand page, so that the book can be used as a trivia game, either alone or in groups. There are instructions on how to play the quiz game, but the book is also fun for just browsing and testing your own knowledge.

A great gift for the movie lover in your life.
