Produktinformationen zu „Caught with My Pants Down and Other Tales from a Life in Hollywood (ePub)“
For more than four decades, Jim Piddock has navigated the turbulent waters of Broadway and Hollywood as an actor, writer, and producer. In this highly entertaining and witty account of his journey from a small village in England to the heady heights of the Hollywood Hills, he pulls back the curtain-with remarkable honesty and no small amount of humour-to reveal all that goes on the behind the scenes in the entertainment industry.
But underneath this lighthearted, irreverent romp through the worlds of film, television, theatre-not to mention his involvement with Crystal Palace Football Club in his spare time-lie the deeper reflections of an ordinary man who has led an extraordinary life, and his incisive conclusions on what the real meaning of family is, how to make destiny-defining choices, and the importance of living life to the fullest.
