Stewart Granger Autobio 50s Movie Actor Jean Simmons Deborah Kerr Photos HC/DJ

Like Robert Mitchum, Granger didn't have much respect for bad movies. He minded more than Mitchum having to do films he didn't like, but he always needed money. Here is a man who knew his own mind and was not afraid to take on the directors, producers, and all-powerful studio heads in a cut-throat industry during Hollywood's Golden Era.

Stewart Granger, whose real name was Jimmy Stewart (already taken), writes surprisingly well. Parts of this book read like an exciting novel: hunting episodes in Africa; lawsuit pitting him and wife Jean Simmons against Howard Hughes (the Grangers unexpectedly won but asked for no settlement except expenses); a western battle with his crooked ranch manager. He drops his share of names just to prove he can, but some people with "names" were actually his close friends: Michael Wilding was his best friend; Laurence Olivier was a close one. Granger was generous to his friends, with money, time, sympathy, and favors.Like Robert Mitchum, Granger didn't have much respect for bad movies. He minded more than Mitchum having to do films he didn't like, but he always needed money. Here is a man who knew his own mind and was not afraid to take on the directors, producers, and all-powerful studio heads in a cut-throat industry during Hollywood's Golden Era. Most of his autobiography deals with his professional life and the various productions he was involved in
