[Joan · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book consisted of interviews with famous actors, actresses and directors. I'm no expert on celebrity culture but the interviews in this book are more personal than I was used to. Now with the avalanche of tabloids I can't imagine getting the same in-depth look at famous people. They are far more private. This book had interviews with Julia Roberts, Winona Ryder, Brad Pitt, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Kevin Costner among others.
