Review # 1 was written on 2018-06-29 00:00:00 Tuan Nguyen There were some interesting stories about Stack's long career but he seems confused who he's writing for. It's a movie star biography did he really think his audience was so fascinated by skeet shooting that it required an entire 20 page plus chapter? Or bullfighting? Those sports have their adherents surely but I doubt it is those reading this, especially while his work with master director Douglas Sirk which encompassed two revered films and resulted in an Oscar nomination for Stack was given a scant five pages. An okay read but an awful lot of unnecessary filler.

Review # 2 was written on 2017-07-21 00:00:00 Jeremy Cook Somewhat odd that a man who is almost the benchmark for a Second Stringer during the hollywood era would write one of the best biographies from an actor during that period.
