Book Reviews of Golden Boy: The Untold Story of William Holden

Book Review: Golden Boy - Sad Story
Summary: 5 Stars

I'm a big William Holden fan and tried for ages to get this book - finally got one through Amazon and not disappointed. Its a good read - which left me quite sad for William Holden. Here was a man who had it all, fame, money, good looks, family and yet was still haunted by the demon of alcoholism. What a terrible shame for the latter part of his career to be so meaningless for him - considering the 1950's was an open door for him. Thoroughly enjoyed this book - although its a little dated (issued 1983) and obviously many main people in this book have now died and more stories have since surfaced regarding more intimate involvement with William Holden (Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly, Shelley Winters etc). I reckon William's story would (updated) make an excellent biographical fim - wake up Hollywood.
