Part how-to manual, part memoir, this book from the man who made Plan 9 From Outer Space and Glen or Glenda was published posthumously. In his single atempt to acclimate "the boys and girls of America" to a Tinseltown of myth, magic and misanthropy, Wood shares his perceptions, from the politics of the casting couch to the practices of the acting craft. A remainder mark on the lower edges, a small pen mark and light erasure on the half-title page.
