Critics Review
“Peter Hoffman is like nobody else. He is Hollywood at its aggressive, hard-bargaining worst, and at its noble, idealistic best. If you want to know how the entertainment business really works, which is to say, how the money works and the deals and the law and the morality–and there is a morality!–read his book.

This is actually existing Hollywood, and Peter is the rare person with the brains, guts and patience to explain it all.”–Henry Bean
