I would only recommend this book to readers who have a fascination with Hollywood of the 1970s and early '80s but would not be put off by the author's self-absorption.

This is pretty old now, published in 1991, but it could have been written yesterday. Often profane and very very opinionated, author Julia Phillips, who produced both THE STING and CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND, knew everyone who was anyone at the time and lived to tell about them (after a deep descent into drug addiction). The book is great fun and you will recognize the names of many people who no doubt did not ever invite the author to lunch again.
