“501 Must See Movies” is essential reading for both the film buff and those who simply enjoy going to the movies. Many of the unrivalled classics are here, but perhaps seen from a new perspective by dynamic young critics, together with some unexpected and new discoveries.
At the age of ten, Tatum O’Neal was at the pinnacle of her Hollywood career, starring as a precocious sidekick in the 1973 film Paper Moon. The role won her an Oscar, making O’Neal the youngest Academy Award winner in history. By 1982, though, this angel-face was a full-blown cocaine addict, a teenage victim of depression, parental neglect, and abuse. A Paper Life recounts the actress’s fragile passage through decades of adversity and personal turmoil to sobriety and spiritual peace. With astonishing candor, O’Neal discusses her destructive relationships with her father, Ryan O’Neal, her mother, Joanna Moore, and her ex-husband, tennis pro John McEnroe.
