This is kind of an addendum to my original hint (since updated here; I was "anonymous" when the original hint was posted) about creating a slideshow movie of a book in iPhoto 6. And I was indeed stunned to learn that the previous hint was just an option-key away!
Now let's say you've made a nice double-sided book layout. Wouldn't you like to get that feeling of viewing two pages at a time, like with a book in your hands, but in a full screen slideshow? Of course you would. Here's how.
First, print your book to a PDF. Open the PDF in Preview. Select the option View » PDF Display » Facing Pages. Now enter the slideshow (Command-Shift F), and you might need to click the fit-to-screen button on the floating palette. Voila! On a widescreen display, this is quite glorious.
