"Peter Bogdanovich, known primarily as a director, film historian and critic, has been working with professional actors all his life." "Now, in his new book, Who the Hell's in It, Bogdanovich draws upon a lifetime of experience, observation and understanding of the art to write about the actors he came to know along the way; actors he admired from afar; actors he worked with, directed, befriended." "Bogdanovich captures - in their words and his - their work, their individual styles, what made them who they were, what gave them their appeal and why they've continued to be America's iconic actors."--BOOK JACKET.
