Product Description
Throughout the 1940's, Zachary Scott was the very model of the sophisticated and debonair Hollywood villain in films such as "Mask of Dimitrios". He also earned critical praise for his performance in Jean Renoir's "The Southern", along side Joan Crawford. In "Zachary Scott", Davis takes us through the defining moments in Scott's life, from his privileged upbringing in Texas, his work in English provincial theatre, filming with Warner Studios, and ultimately his death from a brain tumour in October 1965. Davi's exemplary biography brings to life a talented actor rarely given the opportunity to shine on screen.
