Interesting to me because I was born in Los Angeles, raised in Hollywood, daughter of a cinematographer.

Review by David from Pasadena, CA | 12/9/2010

The third and last of McMurtry's dashed off memoirs. Despite the second memoir about his literary career being so weak I thought I'd follow through to the end. This one was marginally better than the second memoir but that is about as faint of praise as you can get.

Review by John from Orland Park, IL | 11/1/2010

If nothing else it gives some insights as to how film makers choose material for their screen plays. As with all of his work this was entertaining but pales in comparison to his first two memoirs.It on;y takes a couple of hours to read so it's worth the time you give to it.
