Book Reviews of The secret life of Tyrone Power
Book Review: Wish I read the reviews before i got this
Summary: 5 Stars
it is hard to describe one's disappointment on reading an awful book about a favourite star.Ty Power was one of the great stars of hollywood's golden age, just watch him in films with loretta young or gene tierney and you'll be wiped out by their combined beauty. His films are fun and great and you can see his talent shine through. he died at a tragically young age and seems to be overlooked by film historians. he excelled in all genres, comedy, romance, adventure, war, westerns, historical dramas and musicals. his films made over $1billion. watch him to see what real star power was and is. he does not deserve this book of innuendo. how can the author write about what he was thinking??? This is a feeble poorly written attempt at a biography and I for one am ashamed that i bought it. Power deserves a re-evaluation as a classic star. in TCM's book of leading men he doesn't even get a mention, whereas mickey rooney and paul muni do!!!! P.S. I met his daughter Romina in Rome and she is a lovely dignified lady, and so in some way i feel for her at having to put up with trash written about her father. by the way I am a gay man so i am not being prejudiced. i just don't believe in outing people when they are dead and can't defend themselves, and with no evidence. Isn't there a law against such things. Tyrone power was and is one of my favourite stars of a bygone age. if you want a good biography get 'the last idol' by fred lawrence guiles. don't waste your money on this. thank god i bought mine second hand!
