‘Meticulously researched . . . an informed and insightful piece of work.’ Film Review
Winner of the Best Actor Oscar in 1992 for The Silence of the Lambs, and nominated for his roles in the films The Remains of the Day, Nixon and Amistad, Anthony Hopkins has confirmed his international star status.
From early screen success in The Lion in Winter, to his compelling performances as Dr Hannibal Lecter, a tragic CS Lewis, disgraced American President Richard Nixon and genius artist Picasso, the Welsh-born actor has established a magnetic presence and a dangerous vitality. But alcoholism and a record of hell-raising came close to wrecking his enviable career: only by a massive effort of will has Hopkins overcome his demons and reformed his life.
Definitive and up to the minute, this biography has been written with the full co-operation of Hopkins and those who know him. Now updated to include Hopkins’s latest work in Nixon, Surviving Picasso, The Mask of Zorro and Titus, this is a frank and revealing account of a major star.
‘Written with style, humour and humanity, knowledge and affection for its subject and solid understanding of a great actor’s craft.’ Sunday Express
