Hardcover. Franklin Center PA, Franklin Library, 1st, 2000, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: None, This is a memoir from the acclaimed author of "The Princess Bride" and numerous other books and screenplays. Includes a special message from Goldman not present in the trade edition. A fine copy in decorated full leather binding with all page edges gilt and a bound in silk book marker. SIGNED BY GOLDMAN. Something odd, if predictable, became of screenwriter William Goldman after he wrote the touchstone tell-all book on filmmaking, Adventures in the Screen Trade (1983), he became a Hollywood leper. Goldman opens his long-awaited sequel by writing about his years of exile before he found himself--again--as a valuable writer in Hollywood. Fans of the two-time Oscar-winning writer ( Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid , All the President's Men ) have anxiously waited for this follow-up since his career serpentined into a variety of big hits and critical bombs in the '80s and '90s. Here Goldman scoops on The Princess Bride (his own favorite), Misery , Maverick , Absolute Power , and others. Goldman's conversational style makes him easy to read for the film novice but meaty enough for the detail-oriented pro. His tendency to ramble into other subjects may be maddening (he suddenly switches from being on set with Eastwood to anecdotes about Newman and Garbo), but we can excuse him because of one fact he is so darn entertaining. An as new copy and still in the publisher's shrinkwrap.
