Tyler's book was one of the earliest "foreign film" best-of compendiums, done up in the typical coffee-table manner of the '60s and '70s with lots of big black and white picture stills hugging the critical text for each title's allotted 4 pages or so. Tyler had a confident and very smart style and critical perception, and his selections were intriguing; some of the films have never quite made it into the consensus canon, mainly due to inaccessibility. Both Tyler and later David Shipman in his incomparable "The Story of Cinema" champion the obscure but apparently masterful 1936 Swiss film, Die Ewige Maske, which still eludes viewing.
