Don Siegel was one of Hollywood's most controversial directors. Invasion of the Body Snatchers is one of the very few acknowledged science-fiction classics, and 'Dirty Harry' Callahan, with his catchphrase 'Make my day', has become part of our modern consciousness. Siegel's five-film collaboration with Clint Eastwood created a body of work that is distinctive as it is varied and enriched both their reputations.This autobiography has all the fun and energy one would expect from Don Siegel. From his first days as an assistant editor in the Warner Brothers cutting rooms, Siegel charts his rich and varied career. This is a wonderful book of reminiscences, told in a lively and vivid style, whose cast of characters includes John Wayne, Lee Marvin, Steve McQueen, Bogart and Bacall and other luminaries of the golden age of the Hollywood studios.
