Riassunto

Picking up where A Story Lately Toldleaves off, when Anjelica Huston is 22 years old, WatchMe chronicles her glamorous and eventful Hollywood years. She tells the story of falling in love with Jack Nicholson and her adventurous, turbulent, high-profile, spirited 17-year relationship with him and his intoxicating circle of friends. She writes about learning the art and craft of acting, about her Academy Award-winning portrayal of Maerose Prizzi in Prizzi's Honour, about her collaborations with many of the greatest directors in Hollywood, including Woody Allen, Wes Anderson, Richard Condon, Bob Rafelson, Francis Ford Coppola and Stephen Frears. She writes movingly and beautifully about the death of her father, the legendary director John Huston and her marriage to sculptor Robert Graham.

Recensione:

Praise for A Story Lately Told:
* 'Huston combines an extraordinary life with a real gift for storytelling. Her dry wit, eloquent understatement and her vivid memory for the places, people and feelings of her childhood and early adulthood make this one of those rare celebrity memoirs that you'll want to read and reread for the sheer beauty of its writing' Daily Mail
* 'Her descriptions of her childhood sparkle with delight (she has a wonderful eye)... haunting mixture of bright, sensuous description and dark emotional undercurrents... Heady stuff' Lynn Barber, Sunday Times
*' 'What's particularly enjoyable about her story is the rhapsodic way that she beautifully describes that bygone world. A second volume of the book promises to continue the story from 1974 onwards; on this evidence, it should be beguiling stuff' Observer
