In this second volume of Tino Balio's history of United Artists, he examines the turnaround of the company in the hands of Arthur Krim and Robert Benjamin in the 1950s, when United Artists devised a successful strategy based on the financing and distribution of independent production that transformed the company into an industry leader. Drawing on corporate records and interviews, Balio follows United Artists through its merger with Transamerica in the 1960s and its sale to MGM after the financial debacle of the film Heaven's Gate. With its attention to the role of film as both an art form and an economic institution, United Artists: The Company That Changed the Film Industry is an indispensable study of one company's fortunes from the 1950s to the 1980s and a clear-eyed analysis of the film industry as a whole.This edition includes an expanded introduction that examines the history of United Artists from 1978 to 2008, as well as an account of Arthur Krim's attempt to mirror UA's success at Orion Pictures from 1978 to 1991.

Very nice but expensive
Size: Queen Size (Pack of 2)
I love these cases, they didn't let out as much air as I had hoped for out the sides so I only zip it up half way so my pillow stays squishy and moldable and not partially filled with air which changes the feel of your pillow. Other then that they are great, they are very soft and quite, there is no noise whatsoever and there is some thickness to it adding a little more softness to your pillow. I ended up buying a second set. I just wish it had a little more airflow through the sides so I didn't have to leave it unzipped, that kind of defeats the purpose. I also think they are a little more expensive then they should be.

Does not change the pillows effectiveness at all.
Size: King Size (Pack of 2)
As of right now, I have not noticed anything with these covers that would significantly alter the way the pillows feel. I'm greatful that they are not noisy as most other covers are. I also appreciate that they have very much the same feel as the covers that come on the pillows. One thing I can say so far with confidence is that even though this is an additional layer to my pillows, the original feeling, specially with the Eden cool+, has been the same in terms of coolness and breathability.

SUPER SOFT - GREAT QUALITY!
Size: Crescent Queen
This crescent pillow protector is more than I expected, as far as softness and just the overall quality of it. I wish my PILLOW was as nice as this protector! Definitely recommend.

Exactly as described
Size: Crescent Queen
This pillow cover is everything they said it would be. Comfortable, no crinkle sound. Fits the pillow like a glove. I highly recommend.

These pillows perform wonderfully and they hold up!
Color: Grey, Size: Standard, Color: Grey, Size: Standard
I have had these pillows for 5 years, so mine is not in brand new condition in this photo but they still appear pretty good and function wonderfully. I recommend these to others looking for a soft but supportive pillow. They are the standard microfiber cooling ones. I have one and my daughter (7) has the other. We use them every night and they are just the perfect amount of medium-softness for both of us despite us being very different in size! Still fluff back up, have just enough support and height or thickness in my opinion (I don’t like very firm microfiber pillows as much, and I don’t like the feather pillows that aren’t goose down because they get crunchy and flat). Love these pillows, the price is super reasonable for the product they provide. They have held up this long, I’d say they are of good quality. I’ve just ordered another set for a visit to my mothers house! Our favorite pillows!
