Title: Fascinating director meets dull interviewer
Product review: Andre DeToth is a fascinating character and one of the most underrated directors of golden age Hollywood. In this q&a book, the great DeToth is ill served by the banal questions and one dimensional approach of the interviewer. DeToth himself seems vaguely contemptuous of the questioner's dull inquisition, and refers to him with a sarcastic "Herr Future Director." DeToth (by evidence of other interviews and his own book of memoirs) is a hilarious, larger-than-life figure, and some of this comes through, but the interviewer's complete lack of a sense of humor more often deadens the proceedings.
