Synopsis
From gun-toting gangsters and daring private dicks to head-scratching whodunits and corrupt guys and heartless dames in murderous melodramas, here's the first comprehensive video guide to movies on crime and punishment.
With this critical look at the long dark history of murder on tape, you can now select your viewing fare from such movie masterpieces as The Big Sleep and The Maltese Falcon, cult classics like Blood Simple and Cutter's Way, noir thrillers such as Double Indemnity and Touch of Evil, prison dramas like The Shawshank Redemption and The Longest Yard, and gangster shoot-'em'-ups such as Scarface and Goodfellas.

From the Author
A complete guide to movies on crime and punishment
I am the author of MURDER ON TAPE,and I do hope you enjoy the book, which reviews over l,000 movies on crime and punishment, from Little Caesar to Donnie Brasco. For each movie I provide credits, a star rating, and a succint and hopefully useful review. The book is intended as a comprehensive guide to detective thrillers, courtroom dramas, gangster films, and of course the entire world of film noir. I'm sure you'll find many of your favorite thrillers here, such as The Maltese Falcon, The Asphalt Jungle, and Double Indemnity (a personal favorite). I do hope you will ask for MURDER ON TAPE at your bookstore.
