Summary: I've met Bob Evans and you can believe his story.
Comment: I spent two days with Bob Evans in Wash., D.C., promoting his movie "Black Sunday" and found him to be honest & straightforward, a class act. No phoniness, no ego stroking like a lot of movie types I dealt with. His book, also, is not just another Hollywood hype whitewash, but an honest recounting of the facts--pretty and ugly--as he remembers them. Read it! A helluva story; a helluva life; a helluva guy!

Summary: cousinpaco bought me this!
Comment: Robert Evans is the stuff of legend. A Hollywood icon. An autobiography was a no-brainer, but an audio book of Evans narrating his autobiography -- that's just a stroke of genius.
Evans tells the stories of his many ups and downs during his tenure at Paramount Pictures, and beyond. Some of the stories are funny, some are sad, but all of them are pure Evans. Sure, he's completely self-absorbed, and you're only going to get his side of the story (the truth, right?), but it wouldn't be nearly as entertaining any other way.
His voice, while mildly terrifying, matches the mix of factual and anecdotal information. He speaks in a steady, level and clear recitation, then moves to a more rapid, conversational and enthusiastic expression. This change in tempo keeps the listener both absorbed and informed.
As far as audio books are concerned, "The Kid Stays in the Picture" is the king. Robert Evans wouldn't have it any other way.

Summary: Gotta Love Bob...
Comment: He was kicked many times when he was down, at one point only a few of his loyalists remained, but he didn't skewer his fellow "peers."
The guy is a survivor, a legend in his time, and perhaps in his own mind.
His is a story about not giving up regardless of the hand you are dealt.
