Helpful Score: 1
Excellent narrative on Sidney's very interesting life, career and filmography. I only knew him as an author of thrillers and had no idea of his vast talent. Well worth getting to know him and pleasant listening to the reader. The follow-up interview with Mr Sheldon was the perfect finish to the biography.
Enjoyable. Overviews the Hollywood studio system from the perspective of a writer. Has a life long battle with manic depression (now called bi-polar disorder). Sheldon got lucky, even at times when he experienced hardship.
He could write well.

This is the autobiography of a gentleman who knew better than to "kiss and tell". He worked his career during one of the most interesting periods in Hollywood. I wish I had known him.
