Red Carpets and Other Banana Skins: The Autobiography by Rupert Everett
meredith
British actor Rupert Everett (ANOTHER COUNTRY) has lived both a typical and atypical life among Hollywood stars. He’s familiar with the politics and gossip, but his status as an openly gay man in Hollywood sets him apart. From his beginning years in the industry to his most recent films, Everett reveals some of the outrageous as well as the sober sides of life in front of the lens. His acting experience makes him an obvious choice as a narrator. Everett delivers his memoir in a soft and sinewy voice that encourages listeners to believe they’re getting an insider’s view. With ease, he sets aside his English accent in order to make clear transitions between his narrative and character voices. L.E. © AudioFile 2007
