"It's profoundly beautiful, provokes intense emotion, offers up what feels like rooted, incontrovertible truths — but as soon as one tries to repeat them, all that's left are shapes and textures, the faint outlines of shifting terrain..."
The New York Times Book Review
"... a fantastically entertaining memoir that shows the movie business in high definition ... Zwick writes briskly and warmly, with a clear eye to keeping things moving."
The Guardian
"... extraordinary ... The author's heartfelt and resplendent writing is loaded with an earthy complexity reminiscent of Zora Neale Hurston ... Oliver's brilliant stories belong in the American canon."
