This is the HARDBACK version. For Jackey Neyman Jones, who played Debbie in Manos: The Hands of Fate, the "worst movie ever made" is, at its heart, a home movie that just happens to be shared with the world. Equal parts memoir/family saga/film book, Growing Up with Manos: The Hands of Fate shares the behind-the-scenes story of the making of Manos: from creator Hal Warren's alleged bet with TV producer Stirling Silliphant that "anyone could make a movie," to the tragic suicide of John Reynolds (Torgo), right up through the newest Manos-related projects that are carrying the film into the digital age. Jackey's stories dispel much of the Manos mythology while crystallizing a unique time and place in America, where a crew of actors with a bad script and a rented camera set out to make a bad movie-and succeeded beyond their wildest dreams. Jackey Neyman Jones is a professional artist living in the Great Northwest. Laura Mazzuca Toops is a writer/editor with more than 30 years' experience in business and fiction writing. She is the author of three historical novels. Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |

Unfortunately.....no.
Yes, it was worth the time to read just for a few interesting glimpses in to the life of those behind Manos as well as the interesting first viewing and premier. But overall bout 2/3rd of this work isn't needed. It's dry and flat until you reach a handful of buried gems inside the heap. So while I did like Growing Up except for the first two chapters and section on the man who played Torgo, you might be better of skimming it rather than reading. ( )
