coatesvillain's review against another edition
2.0
This isn’t a good book, and after reading it I’ve come to the conclusion that Kirk Douglas wasn’t a very likable person. Some of his actions were reprehensible even at the time. The interesting stuff was in the beginning when he talked about his origins. As the book went on it became more about EVERY movie he did and why everyone else wasn’t up to his standards. Everything he tried he was great at with practice. There was such a lack of self-awareness that it was staggering. Just don’t even try this book if you might be interested. It’s not worth your time.
