Bookish
Joe Eszterhas, screenwriter of Basic Instinct, Sliver and Showgirls to name but three tit-taculars, has written a tell-all tale on Hollywood. The book's title is:
'The Devil's guide to Hollywood: The screenwriter as God!'
Catchy, no?
I was intrigued by what this book could offer so I turned to the trusty Amazon review section. "Oh no!" I cried. It isn't very good, well at least not according to Jon Agee:
"This is not a book, but a collection of quotes, tidbits, random thoughts and praise of the author. It is not cohesive. It has no direction, despite the promises of the misleading chapter titles. It is self-indulgent. Unless you are a screenwriter or intrigued of all things Hollywood, you will not finish it."
Fucknut.
