"Emily Witt blends monograph with vivid reportage in her latest offering: a short but sweet study of Nigerian cinema." - Financial Times How did Nigeria create the second largest movie industry in the world? Nollywood began in Nigeria in the 1990s and has grown into one of the most recognized cultural centers of the world, producing more movies every year than Hollywood and almost as many as Bollywood. Emily Witt travels to Nigeria to offer a vivid, rollicking tour of the industry today, from the back alleys of the marketplaces of Lagos to the glamour of a red-carpet premiere, from startups trying to digitalize what has been largely an economy based on piracy to the shooting of a historic epic in the northern city of Jos. Amid electricity cuts, fuel scarcity, and countless other obstacles, Nigerians are pursuing the very real possibility that Nollywood dramas could become a global brand, as recognizable as the Bollywood musical, the Hong Kong kung fu flick, or the Hollywood blockbuster.Binding Type: Paperback

Best socks
Size: Medium, Color: Pink Elixir Assorted
Everyone got socks in their stockings this year. But no one was complaining. They weren't thin like some socks. But not super thick either. Just right. I even bought a pair for myself. No regrets. Will definitely buy again.

Great socks
My husband will only wear 100% cotton socks none of the spandex moisture control etc so these are hard to find in stores but he loves them and they last a while

Great feel, amazing tech, and perfect fit
Size: Large, Color: Black/Gray (6 Pairs)
I've been purchasing the white w/grey toe socks for most of my adult life. Never really understood why I'd want anything else. Saw these as an Amazon suggestion one day and figured I'd give them a shot. Oh my freaking feet have never been happier!!!
I imagine that the fabrics used by UA to wick away sweat and odor are what makes these socks so comfortable, but I would be lying if I said I understood why they were so amazing. They slip on effortlessly and hug your foot throughout the day. Unlike the socks I used to purchase, these do not lose their shape after a full day of wear and exercise. They also have ample thickness to protect my feet while I'm running from any rubbing or hot spots from my shoes. I imagine this has a lot to do with the fact that they maintain their shape and do not move/slip around while wearing.
I was a bit hesitant to purchase black running socks at first, but they hide right below my shoe line and are even less noticeable than my old white w/grey toe socks I used to purchase. I am not certain what "charged cotton" means, but if it means amazing feel, great features (wick away sweat; fight odor), and all for a reasonable price. I'm in.
Overall, if you're looking for a nice pair of socks to wear throughout the day or while doing your workout, you would be remiss in not giving these UA socks a shot.

super socks
Cotton socks have proven to be a simple yet indispensable addition to my daily wear, offering a level of comfort that sets them apart from other materials. The soft, breathable nature of cotton fabric ensures a gentle and cozy embrace for my feet throughout the day. Whether I'm navigating a busy workday or enjoying a relaxing evening at home, these socks provide a pleasant cushioning effect, preventing any discomfort or irritation. Additionally, the moisture-wicking properties of cotton keep my feet dry and fresh, making them an ideal choice for all-day wear. The durability of cotton socks has also impressed me; they maintain their shape and softness even after numerous washes, showcasing the reliability and longevity of the material.
One of the key features that make cotton socks a wardrobe essential is their versatility. Suitable for various occasions, these socks effortlessly complement both casual and formal attire. The wide array of colors and patterns available allows for easy integration into any style, making them a go-to choice for different outfits. In terms of value for money, cotton socks offer a cost-effective solution without compromising on quality. Overall, my experience with cotton socks has been consistently positive, and I find myself reaching for them daily due to their unmatched comfort, durability, and adaptability to various fashion choices.
