This edition, number ten, follows the same process as the earlier editions; 100 people, most of which you've never heard of, are profiled, with a general run down of what they have been up to since their brush with fame. I see that Turhan Bey still won't discuss the scandal that made him leave Hollywood, while the chaps that wrote "I'm a gnu" are profiled, as is one-time Tarzan Gordon Scott, who does not come across well.
Perhaps saddest of all though is the profile of June Duprez, a British actress of the 1940s and 50s, who told of her time in Hollywood, particularly when she wouldn't let leading film producer David O. Selznick into her house one night to molest her, he broke a window to get in, or how film studio head Harry Cohn marched into her house one day, intent on molestation, and was then told by her agent that she was lucky she didn't call the police as her career would have ended.
I finished reading that paragraph and thought "ho ho, at least actresses are not having to deal with producers like Harvey Weinstein doing the same thing to them today." And then, less than 1/2 an hour later, I was shown to be so incredibly naïve. ( )
