When the head of Columbia Pictures, David Begelman, got caught forging Cliff Robertson"s name on a $10,000 check, it seemed, at first, like a simple case of embezzlement. It wasn"t. The incident was the tip of the iceberg, the first hint of a scandal that shook Hollywood and rattled Wall Street. Soon powerful studio executives were engulfed in controversy; careers derailed; reputations died; and a ruthless, take-no-prisoners corporate power struggle for the world-famous Hollywood dream factory began.
First published in 1982, this now classic story of greed and lies in Tinseltown appears here with a stunning final chapter on Begelman"s post-Columbia career as he continued to dazzle and defraud...until his last hours in a Hollywood hotel room, where his story dramatically and poignantly would end. Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге Indecent Exposure: A True Story of Hollywood and Wall Street (David McClintick)
