This book parodies the siren call of the silver screen, as the whole Discworld is turned upside down when the last of the Doorkeepers dies, the Alchemists discover octo-cellulose, and enterprising individuals flock to Holy Wood. There are lots of great moments sending up classic Hollywood movies (
Gone with the Wind,
Snow White and the Seven Dwarves, and
Ben-Hur, among others). Very funny.
