The first major biography of one of Old Hollywood’s greatest directors. Sometime partner of the eccentric Howard Hughes, drinking buddy of William Faulkner and Ernest Hemingway, an inveterate gambler and a notorious liar, Howard Hawks was the most modern of the great masters and one of the first directors to declare his independence from the major studios. He played Svengali to Lauren Bacall, Montgomery Clift, and others, but Hawks’s greatest creation may have been himself.

The narrator is TERRIBLE but all
Revisado: 05-21-24
The challenge of writing a biography for Howard Hawks is unenviable for History, there’s so little info about this man’s origins that we don’t get to know him intimately enough and if that doesn’t help - THE MAN LIES CONSTANTLY. Given that Hawks very rarely let us in on his own internal subjectivity it’s no wonder it’s such a daunting task but McCarthy pulls it off.
On the narrator. HORRIBLE. Honestly I expect more from audible, I’m already halfway through and this man has already recorded and messed up a handful of lines and repeated to correct himself which would be fine if I wasn’t paying for it. But it’s the worst narration yet and then fact that I wrote a review is inherently proof to that because I never rate or write reviews but this was just so bad.
