ABOUT THE BOOK:
The Real, Low Down, Dirty Truth About Hollywood Agenting by Rima Greer. $14.95, 244 pages. For the very first time, a Hollywood film agent has opened up her phone sheet and crackberry to give us a peek behind the Wizard's curtain into the world of agents, writers, directors and producers, and studios. 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. This is a fresh tell-all translation from Hollywood-speak to plain English, into a culture that's rarely captured without cliché and hyperbole.
