Summary of this Book... | ||
This is a coffee table type book about my favorite actress, Jean Harlow. It has beautiful pictures of her and is a very respectful and well written book. It is not the least bit trashy and I enjoyed reading it and looking at the pictures. I received this book for my birthday and I love it! | ||
This type of Book is good for... | ||
anyone who enjoys the work of Jean Harlow and who wonders why her career was so short. She died at 26 of kidney failure. | ||
I especially liked... | ||
the fact that the writers did their research and didn't try to blame everything on her stupid mother. She did a lot to hurt her, but she didn't kill her in th end. | ||
I didn't like... | ||
how William Powell comes off, but I gather he was kind of a selfish stinker. I bet he had a lot of regrets. | ||
When I finished reading this Book I wanted to... | ||
watch more of Jean Harlow's movies. | ||
This Book made me feel... | ||
like I wish I could read some of her writing. I bet it was great. | ||
The author of this Book... | ||
It is authors and they show a lot of respect to a great star and actress. I was impressed. | ||
I recommend this Book because... | ||
it is obviously written by people who appreciate Ms. Harlow's work and her abilities. That was refreshing. Usually she is portrayed as a hapless sex symbol. She was a lot more than that and was very much beloved. | ||
