Back
Warren Beatty's first job was as a rat
catcher in a Washington, D.C., theater. When Jack Nicholson first
arrived in Hollywood, he sorted fan mail for the cartoon characters
Tom and Jerry. Alan Ladd was discovered operating a hotdog stand
outside a studio. For his fifty-fifth birthday, John Barrymore was
given a naked woman wrapped in cellophane. George Hamilton used to
throw away his socks after wearing them only once. Tough guy
Charles Bronson was so poor as a kid that he wore his sister’s
hand-me-down dresses. Judy Garland was turned down for a role in
the Our Gang comedies. Ronald Reagan rejected the role of Rick in
CASABLANCA, later made famous by Humphrey Bogart. Jean Acker locked
“the Great Lover,” Rudolph Valentino, out of their honeymoon suite
on their wedding night. Errol Flynn had a trick chair in his house
with a cushion that when touched became a giant inflatable penis.
The history of Hollywood is filled with the strange, bizarre, and
the unbelievable. The seventy lists in HOLLYWOOD'S MOST WANTED
describe in amusing detail Hollywood's top-ten worst movies, most
dreadful performances, biggest bombs, funniest real names, sexiest
blonde bombshells, most intriguing mysteries, most audacious
publicity stunts, oddest couples, most inauspicious debuts,
weirdest pre-acting jobs, most scandalous behavior, strangest
deaths, and more. |
