I recalled reading it in 1975 and thinking then that it was an admirably accurate, balanced, and fair account of the making of the movie.įurthermore, over the ensuing twenty-five years, I had become comfortable with the recollections my personal memory bank had selected and shaped, and I wasn’t interested in disturbing the peace.
