informative reflective slow-paced

An interesting look into the drama of the film industry and how intense Oscar campaigns can get. Serves as a cool microhistory for major events in US history as well as pop culture events.
Took me forever to get through because there was SO MUCH detail put into this (I both loved and hated it). Some of it was not necessary to the point of the book, just extra interesting facts.
Would still recommend to cinephiles!
