Gods and Monsters

Movers, Shakers, and Other Casualties of the Hollywood Machine

By Peter Biskind

Thirty years of Peter Biskind's uniquely insightful writing about Hollywood--the politics, the players, and especially the films themselves. This is American film through the last three decades, refracted through Biskind's own career arc from radical journalist and film critic to self-described "recovering celebrity journalist" and contributing editor to Vanity Fair.
