Film Books

A list of books about film, mostly (but not solely) centred on Hollywood and Britain. Includes memoirs, diaries and biographies of actors, directors, producers et al. (and the occasional tell-all by their nearest and dearest) as well as works of film criticism, film history, film studies and novels set either in the world of film or centred around those connected to the movies.
Of course there are far more books available then are listed here, but I have tried to list those that are either famous (or infamous), have some literary or educational value or simply are of personal interest to me.
