Include Me Out My Life from Goldwyn to Broadway

"Farley Granger captivated the acting community and audiences alike. Working with such creative visionaries as Alfred Hitchcock, Luchino Visconti, and Nicholas Ray, Granger was a celebrated figure in films like Strangers on a Train, Rope, Senso, and They Live by Night, bringing to the big screen a stunningly memorable presence. Behind his characters, however, he was and remains an intensely complex man, full of whimsy as well as strength." "Now, with disarming candor, Granger intimately details his life outside the frame, including his then-taboo bisexuality. Drawing on a rich trove of personal insights, he describes his relationships with both men and women and how they affected not only his personal life, but also at times his career. With eloquence he reminisces about screen legends he came to know with a private familiarity - everyone from Shelley Winters to Joan Crawford to Leonard Bernstein." "Re-creating not only his personal struggles but also his legendary professional struggle to free himself from his contract with Sam Goldwyn, he remembers having to buy his way out in order to work on Broadway. But he also remembers fondly the joy he felt at getting his first laugh onstage, of dancing and singing, and bringing to life a character through such a raw and immediate art form."--BOOK JACKET.Granger, Farley is the author of 'Include Me Out My Life from Goldwyn to Broadway', published 2007 under ISBN 9780312357733 and ISBN 0312357737.
