A warmly witty account of the three years a man spent teaching life lessons to his high school dropout son by showing him the world's best (and occasionally worst) films. At the start of this brilliantly unconventional family memoir, David Gilmour is an unemployed movie critic trying to convince his fifteen-year-old son Jesse to do his homework. When he realizes Jesse is beginning to view learning as a loathsome chore, he offers his son an unconventional deal: Jesse could drop out of school, not work, not pay rent - but he must watch three movies a week of his father's choosing. Week by week, side by side, father and son watched everything from True Romance to Rosemary's Baby to Showgirls, and films by Akira Kurosawa, Martin Scorsese, Brian DePalma, Billy Wilder, among others. The movies got them talking about Jesse's life and his own romantic dramas, with mercurial girlfriends, heart-wrenching breakups, and the kind of obsessive yearning usually seen only in movies. Through their film club, father and son discussed girls, music, work, drugs, money, love, and friendship - and their own lives changed in surprising ways.Binding Type: Paperback

Easy to assemble
Pleasing to the eye...Divides the targeted area very nicely and still lets light through. It appears the piece will hold up over time.

Very impressive!
Size: 6 Panel, Size: 6 Panel
I didn't think this screen could possibly be as good as some of the reviews seems to suggest but it had a good rating and seemed like it may be a good match for my needs, which were to create a backdrop for online meetings in my garage/home office. Wow am I surprised by the quality and functionality of this screen. 1) It is really maneuverable due to the two-way hinges. I felt like a kid with a new toy playing with all of the ways you can configure this screen. 2) It's very sturdy and yet light enough to move and store if needed. 3) No weird odors, has a light woody scent, barely noticeable. 4) Its a very high quality screen, beautifully built and very pretty. 5) Its dimensions are as described, a full six foot tall. I spent a lot of time shopping for a screen and am very happy that I chose this one.

Perfect experience ！！！
I love this divider. It is long enough and easy to move around. The 360° hinge can be adjusted to any angle I like. Perfectly hides the awkward corner so I can't see it all of the time. And the light color and pattern in the panels is beautiful. I will buy another one.
