Product Description

Review

"compelling. (Cheryl Crane) admits she's had a hard time gleaning details about her mother's life and often seems to be gathering facts for herself, even if, on occasion, she tells us things we have no right to know... Her mother is a legend, Crane will always be notorious. Both women emerge as fascinating."
--Evening Standard (Books of the Year)


Review

'(T)he actresses's daughter Cheryl and film historian Cidy de La Hoz piece together Turner's dramatic story and publish hundreds of previously unseen photos.'

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic, 4 Jun 2009
By Ms. F. L. Walls - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
My gran was harping on about the good ol' days. Lana Turner is her favourite actress so bought this and never seen her smile (or cry) so much. Well worth the cost.
The only real downside is the weight of it. Some people may find it difficult to hold up when reading.

5.0 out of 5 stars LANA TURNER--A GREAT BOOK, 18 Nov 2009
By Mr. W. J. Wright - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
"LANA The Memories,the Mythes,the Movies",is a great book on the legendary actress LANA TURNER[1921-1995]who was in her heyday a stunningly beautiful woman.
Lana's real name was JULIA JEAN TURNER and she was born on February 8,1921,in Wallace,Idaho.Some film books have also dated Lana's birth year as 1920.
The large book itself has some 400 pages with hundreds of stunning photographs in colour and black and white of Lana as well as of many other legendary actors/actresses.Many having not been published before.
Detailing Lana's childhood,family,to her rise to fame as a great actress.Lana appeared in literally dozens of movies,as from 1937[when her nickname was the sweater girl].All her films are fully described,each film also shows original colour poster work.Also included is a complete Filmography/and a Radio Chronology-at back end of book].A great book and an insight into the GOLDEN YEARS of Hollywood-of which Lana Turner was a large part of.
Lana's daughter Cheryl Crane wrote this book with Film Historian Cindy De La Hoz.The latter has also done "two" other great books on the beautiful legendary actresses LUCILLE BALL and MARILYN MONROE.
For fans of LANA TURNER this excellent book is a MUST HAVE.
Regards,Bill.
