Fast-paced and fun but also a serious, well-reported piece of cultural history. With wit and an impeccable sense of timing, Schulman appreciates the glamour without sugar-coating the grit. Entertaining and informative, the book provides welcome escapism without guilt. -- Julie Salamon, author of The Devil's Candy I devoured this book! Even for a pop-culture obsessive like myself, it floored me in terms of how much I didn't know about the history of Hollywood and the Academy Awards. The patterns it finds across the decades is surprising and delightful. Equally insightful and dishy, it is a must read for anyone interested in the shocking, absurd, thrilling, and fascinating inner workings of the Hollywood machine. -- Billy Eichner, comedian
