The man, the myth, the legend
21. Juni 2009
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
What a character! I thought this was a biography type book when I bought it at my wife's request (she's a bigger Walken fan than I am), but it's not. More an encyclopedic A-Z reference than a read-through, it is still very entertaining and well-written.
I enjoyed learning all the obscure trivia and recommend it. It is a little on the small side, but the man more than makes up for it!

This book is great for a run through of all of Walken's works, quirks and general life. He is an incredible actor, full of wit, wonder, true to himself, and also, has a full measure of mystery. Great read.
