Indecent Exposure: A True Story of Hollywood and Wall Street.

William Morrow & Co, July, 1982. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. Moderate shelf wear & a few small repairs on dj. Lightly aged pages, no markings in text. Book Description: When the head of Columbia Pictures, David Begelman, got caught forging Cliff Robertson's name on a $10,000 check, it seemed, at first, like a simple case of embezzlement. It wasn't. The incident was the tip of the iceberg, the first hint of a scandal that shook Hollywood and rattled Wall Street. Soon powerful studio executives were engulfed in controversy; careers derailed; reputations died; and a ruthless, take-no-prisoners corporate power struggle for the world-famous Hollywood dream factory began. \n\nFirst published in 1982, this now classic story of greed and lies in Tinseltown appears here with a stunning final chapter on Begelman's post-Columbia career as he continued to dazzle and defraud...until his last hours in a Hollywood hotel room, where his story dramatically and poignantly would end. This excellent book documents Cliff Robertson's heroic efforts to get at the truth--for which he was blackballed by the Hollywood establishment for years.""""
