"Indulge yourself with this witty and compelling ride through her dreams, tribulations, stumbles, and memories. Once you start the journey with Sally, there's no turning back." -- Lily Tomlin. "Sally Kellerman is an American original. She's the girl who wore her slippers to the market. Read My Lips is a sexy, funny, honest, and sometimes heartbreaking memoir that takes the rader right into the present. It's totally human, and you have to love it." -- Elliott Gould. "Make Sally's acquaintance . She's touching, warm, funny, and ever so honest! . a real treat!" -- Dyan Cannon. "The iconic "Hot Lips Houlihan" of Robert Altman's M*A*S*H chronicles growing up in -- and alongside -- Hollywood, from the reign of Marlon Brando and Steve McQueen to the celebrity culture of today. Sally Kellerman earned an Academy Award nomination for her brilliant comic turn in M*A*S*H. The nearly six-fee-tall, sultry-voiced blonde has always defied typecasting, becoming an indelible presence on-screen and working with stars as diverse as Alan Arkin, Laurence Olivier, Bud Cort, Tony Curtis, John Gielgud, Elliot Gould, Sissy Spacek, and Rodney Dangerfield. She is as at home onstage as she is in front of a camera, and toured nationally as a lauded cabaret singer. Read My Lips traces Kellerman's career -- launched in Jeff Corey's famous acting class, where she trained with an array of stars-in-the-making including friend Jack Nicholson -- as well as her colorful life. A native Angeleno, she came of age in small-town Hollywood, waitressing at a coffee shop that was a hangout for Brando, McQueen, and Warren Beatty. In the early '60s, Hollywood was a tiny town, full of chance encounters. While she watered her lawn one morning in her bathrobe, her new neighbor Ringo Starr stopped by in his convertible, inviting her to visit; through her friend actress Jennifer Jones, she met Henry Kissinger. She was a lifelong friend and casting favorite of legendary director Robert Altman. Through the years there were career highs and lows, along with drugs, affairs, diets, star-studded group therapy, marriages, unexpected motherhood, and rebirth as a recording artist. Kellerman's rise to fame parallels Hollywood's own growth from a neighborhood ringed by orange groves and dotted with landmarks like space-age Goggie's restaurant and the hat-shaped Brown Derby, to the glittering, if more homogenized, industry boomtown it is today. Inspiring, poignant, and often hilarious, Sally Kellerman's story is a paean to the power of reinvention. As she says: "Won't Hollywood be great once it's finished? Won't we all?" -- from the inner front jacket flap. Taylor, Leigh (jacket design); Jaffe, Deborah (jacket photograph); Mercer, Alan (author photograph) (illustrator). …

paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Paperback. Condition: New. This is a concise and accessible introduction into the concept of objectification, one of the most frequently recurring terms in both academic and media debates on the gendered politics of contemporary culture, and core to critiquing the social positions of sex and sexism.Objectification is an issue of media representation and everyday experiences alike.
