Lent to me by a friend, I should have know that this book would bore me rigid like so many autobiographies written by actors. My feeling is that the lives of most actors, unless utterly outrageous, or were once married to Liz Taylor (same thing probably) are of interest only to other actors or people "in the theatre". Vaguely interesting was her early childhood in deepest, darkest Wales where she spoke only Welsh until she was twelve years old. The rest - YAWN!
