Sobre este áudio
The first major biography of one of Old Hollywood’s greatest directors. Sometime partner of the eccentric Howard Hughes, drinking buddy of William Faulkner and Ernest Hemingway, an inveterate gambler and a notorious liar, Howard Hawks was the most modern of the great masters and one of the first directors to declare his independence from the major studios. He played Svengali to Lauren Bacall, Montgomery Clift, and others, but Hawks’s greatest creation may have been himself. As The Atlantic Monthly noted, “Todd McCarthy. . . . has gone further than anyone else in sorting out the truths and lies of the life, the skills and the insight and the self-deceptions of the work.”

"Excellent...a respectful, exhaustive, and appropriately smartass look at Hollywood's most versatile director."--Newsweek
"McCarthy does a good job of distilling not so much a style as an unflinching philosophy of life.... He gives us the stoic, comic essence of Hawks and his films."--Entertainment Weekly
"Spectacular.... McCarthy's thick, rich biography...chronicles in vivid detail how perhaps the last great popular artist in the movies worked."--Los Angeles Times Book Review
