In the Nick of Time: Motion Picture Sound Serials

Rating:
Summary: Hurry Up and Read This Book
Review: Great reference book. Concentrates on the people who made the serials rather than the serials themselves. One fifth of the volume is devoted to Filmography listing serials released from 1930 through 1956 as well as background information. Excellent index. Fantastic photos from films. Some typos. Don't read this volume until after you see the serial as the secret identity or plot twist is sometimes given away. Appreciation of the motion picture serial is greatly enhanced after reading this monograph.
