[EAN: 9780491033725], Gebraucht, sehr guter Zustand, [SC: 4.5], [PU: London : Allen], Jacket, 208 S. Umschlag leicht berieben, sonst gutes Exemplar. - Once described as 'about as likely a candidate for stardom as the neighbourhood delicatessen man', Walter Matthau has worked long and hard to achieve public recognition. At the age of forty-five he found the perfect role in The Odd Couple on Broadway and became the oldest overnight success in showbusiness. He quickly established himself as a top box-office attraction, won an Oscar for his part as the conniving, shyster lawyer in The Fortune Cookie and has continued to delight audiences with a string of movie hits including The Sunshine Boys, Kotch, Charley Varrick, The Front Page, The Bad News Bears and House Calls. This first ever biography chronicles Matthau's colourful story: his tough childhood in New York; his early jobs as boxing instructor, basketball coach and filing clerk; his lifelong (and very expensive) addiction to gambling; his distinguished Air Force service; the years as a villain in films like King Creole with Elvis Presley; the heart attack which almost ended his bid for film stardom, but which he dismisses thus: 'My doctor gave me six months to live, and then when I couldn't pay the bill, he gave me six months more'; the disastrous making of Hello, Dolly with Barbra Streisand and happier partnerships with Jack Lemmon, Neil Simon, George Burns and Glenda Jackson.
