520    From the celebrated film critic and author of The 
       Biographical Dictionary of Film, an original, seductive 
       account of sexuality in the movies and of how actors and 
       actresses on screen have fed our desire. Film can make us 
       want things we can not have. But, while sometimes 
       rapturous, the interaction of onscreen beauty and private 
       desire speaks to a crisis in American culture, one that 
       pits delusions of male supremacy against feminist 
       awakening and the spirit of gay resistance. Combining 
       criticism, his encyclopedic knowledge of film history, and
       memoir, David Thomson examines how film has found the 
       fault lines in traditional masculinity and helped to point
       the way past it toward a more nuanced understanding of 
       what it means to be a person desiring others. Ranging from
       advertising to pornography, Rudolph Valentino to Moonlight
       , Rock Hudson to Call Me By Your Name , Katharine Hepburn 
       and Cary Grant to Phantom Thread , Thomson shows us the 
       art and the artists we love under a new light. He 
       illuminates the way in which film as art, entertainment, 
       and business has been a polite cover for a kind of erotic 
       séance. And he makes us see how the way we watch our 
       movies is a kind of training for how we try to live
