 Good book November 23, 2008
I read this book in one day, I could not put it down. I'm a big fan of silent movies so I really loved reading their scandals.
The Granddaddy of Hollywood Scandal Books October 10, 2008

Once Upon a Time in Hollywood: From the Secret Files of Harry Pennypackerbr /Shadow Watcherbr /Nobody Drowns in Mineral Lakebr /br /This is the granddaddy of books dealing with Hollywood's dark side.br /br /Drawing as much from gossip as he does from known facts, author Kenneth Anger dishes all the "inside dope" about the glamourous stars of Hollywood's Golden Age.br /br /From the Fatty Arbuckle murder trial to the Lana Turner/Johnny Stompanato affair, no scandal is left out of this book that continually pushes the envelope to the very edge and, possibly, over it.br /br /For example, there's one drawing in the book of Cary Grant (circa 1930s) that bears the caption, "Who's a fairy?"br /br /There are also some very unflattering photos of stars without clothes or make-up, being arrested and even dead. br /br /If you are looking for something "in good taste," this book is definitely not for you.br /br /On the other hand, if you're looking for an entertaining diversion, then HOLLYWOOD BABYLON might just be it. Just don't believe everything you read.br /br / Michael B. Druxman, author of ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD
 Like heroin. Only way more addictive. July 10, 2008
Anger dishes out some absurdly titillating gossip on Hollywood celebs from the 1920s-1950s. While not all of it is terribly credible, Anger delivers his tidbits with the nasty exhilaration of a tabloid queen which makes for a fun read. But if you aren't interested in early American cinema, then there probably is little to interest you here.
 Stupid, dumb, boring,not even good trash!! July 9, 2008

Don't waste your money!! Everyone in this book is ancient(and dead) most person's in this book were born in the 1920's. Most of them I never heard of. Ok Judy Garland,(everyone knows she died on the toliet) Jane Mansfield, nothing new here, the picture of the dead dog was no big deal. The way the book was written half the time it was unclear what the author was saying, there is not any good trash in this book, if you want a better read I would suggest the book by Christopher Kennedy Lawford about his own life and those around him such as the Kennedys and many celebrities.
Awesome! May 23, 2008
If you are really into the sordid morbid details of Hollywood and its famous stars and how they died then this is the perfect book! Very disturbing some of the details but is definately captivating. You don't want to put it down!
