Great Photographs and StoriesBy Christine @ Constantly Moving the BookmarkCoffee hellip;hellip; itrsquo;s the lifeblood of conversations, the black elixir that gets most of us moving in the morning, the pick-me-up in the middle of a hectic day and the finish to a fine meal.But itrsquo;s not just the everyday person who depends on this magical beverage; the stars of the silver screen enjoyed it too. ldquo;Hollywood Cafeacute;rdquo; is a collection of high quality photographs of actors, some very well know and some not so much, enjoying their coffee. But, it is more than that. What I particularly enjoyed about this book is the fact that every picture was accompanied by a short synopsis explaining, of course, who was in the photo but also the circumstances. Some were stills from films so a short recap of the film was provided, some were publicity stills and, some were advertising promotions ndash; yes, even back then they had stars endorsing products.My favorite pictures by far were the candid shots, coffee in the cafeteria, during make-up sessions and sitting waiting for shooting to resume. This book covers Hollywood from the 1980rsquo;s back to the silent film era and some of the coffee service items were interesting to see. No styrofoam cups for these folks; they used china pots with matching cups and saucers or mugs filled from elaborate samovars.If you are interested in coffee, the glamour days of the silver screen or just some star gazing this is an interesting book to pick up. It would assuredly make a welcome addition to the coffee table book collection for any movie-phile.4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Ultimate coffee book for Classic Film lovers!By LynxThis fun coffee book for Classic Film lovers is filled with publicity photos, production stills and fantastic candids of all your favourite stars, and some you may not be as familiar with, enjoying a good ol' cup of Joe. Large, good quality photographs are what you will find in this one, with a sentence or two of description. Enjoyable, light flip-through reading.*Thank you Schiffer Publishing Ltd and Netgalley for this review copy. Put on a pot of your favorite coffee, perk up, and enjoynostalgic black-and-white photos that celebrate screen icons from the SilentEra through the eighties, making and drinking their own cups of joe, java,pour-overs, and percolated brews. Hollywood Cafeacute; bridges the vibrantcoffee culture of right-now with the glamorous coffee culture of thestar-studded past. A dream cast of nearly 200 stars?Humphrey Bogart,Marilyn Monroe, Frank Sinatra, Grace Kelly, Audrey Hepburn, Katharine Hepburn,Bette Davis, Clara Bow, Charlie Chaplin, W. C. Fields, Robert Mitchum, RitaHayworth, Bob Hope, Michael Caine, Jane Fonda, Ava Gardner, Jackie Gleason,Lucille Ball, Elvis Presley, Jayne Mansfield, Sammy Davis Jr., William Holden,Lauren Bacall, John Wayne, and many more?is captured on the set, on the run, incostume and out, behind-the-scenes and at the kitchen table, refilling andrefueling, sipping and savoring, drinking the good stuff, just like us. "For those movie-loving coffee snobs in your life." (Yahoo Movies)"I am a suckernbsp;for publicity photos fromnbsp;Hollywoodrsquo;s golden age, so I had a great time goingnbsp;through this handsome hardcover book from the eminent critic who brought usnbsp;Hollywood Rides a Bike: Cycling with thenbsp;Stars. Whatrsquo;s more, the cover photo of Dick Powell and Ellen Drew remindsnbsp;me of one of my favorite lines of dialogue from their filmnbsp;Christmas in July: ldquo;If you canrsquo;t sleep at night, it isnrsquo;t the coffee?itrsquo;s the bunk.rdquo; Thank you, Preston Sturges. Besides that wonderful covernbsp;shot there are scores of others featuring Rita Hayworth, Ray Milland, Gingernbsp;Rogers, William Powell, and others right through the 1960s and beyond likenbsp;Elvis Presley. Therersquo;s even a shot of Bobby Clark (of Clark and McCullough)nbsp;with Ella Logan innbsp;The Goldwyn Follies.nbsp;This is a perfect book to leave on a coffee table?where else??to amuse yournbsp;guests." (Leonard Maltin, IndieWire)"A follow-up to his 2012 book, ldquo;Hollywood Rides a Bike: Cycling With The Stars,rdquo; Rea, a longtime movie critic for the Philadelphia Inquirer, gives ldquo;Hollywood Caferdquo; the same joyful ldquo;check-this-out!rdquo; collectorrsquo;s treatment, using the captions that accompany each image, be they staged publicity stills or candids of actors caffeinating between takes, to offer nuggets of film lore and coffee trivia." (Margy Rochlin, Los Angeles Times)"You will see Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz drinking coffee as they read the morning papers; Kirk Douglas in a robe and pajamas doing the same. Elizabeth Taylor and Warren Beatty are photographed with cigarettes and cups of java on the set of ldquo;The Only Game in Townrdquo; in 1970, as are Yves Montand and Candice Bergen (with an empty cup) from ldquo;Live for Liferdquo; in 1968. These are some of the photos of film stars with coffee in outtakes and off screen in this amusing and nostalgic book by the film critic for The Philadelphia Inquirer." (Florence Fabricant, "Front Burner," The New York Times)"Anbsp;beautiful hardcover photography book featuring a collection of vintage photos unlike any before it. Nearly 200 stars are captured enjoying coffee from the Silent Film Era through the 1980s in the book. Among them: Humphrey Bogart, Marilyn Monroe, Frank Sinatra, Grace Kelly, Audrey Hepburn, Bette David, and more."
