Book Description
In this book you’ll find everything you always wanted to know about the real, honest-to-not-so-goodness, day-to-day inner workings of Hollywood. Not the glamorous Oscar-winning-Spielberg-red-carpet Hollywood, but the real-life daily grind of working Hollywood. For the very first time, a Hollywood film agent has opened up her phone sheet and crackberry to show us how agents, writers, and directors function in a world of producers, development executives, and studio executives. This isn’t another book dishing the dirt about the rich and famous; it’s a fresh, tell-all translation from Hollywood-speak to plain English, a peek behind the wizard’s curtain into a culture that’s rarely captured without cliché and hyperbole. You’ll learn how to get an agent, how to keep one, what they do, and what they don’t do. You’ll learn how agents navigate through the murky, film-world politics and even why agents are such infamous liars.
