Title: Great Actress but boring book! Skip it!
Review: Ruth Gordon was a great actress and one of the best "characters" ever to grace the silver screen. You would assume an autobiography would be filled with funny stories from her life but this book is nothing like that. This HUGE uninteresting book is filled with names, names, names and more names of people you have never heard of. No explanation about who they are or distiguishing features about them. It would only be of interest to people who actually know these people.I'm pretty well versed in Broadway and Hollywood history and even I didn't know who or what she was talking about most of the time.This was an autobiography her friends might enjoy reading (cause they know the people) but for everyone else this is just a long drawn our series of names and uninteresting stories.I forced myself to keep reading this until I got to the Hollywood section and even then when I knew the names the storytelling was just as bad.Skip this book!
