Admit One: My Life In Film (2007) - Plot & Excerpts

I enjoyed the story telling and how the author related parts of his life to movies he had seen at the theater during that time. He and I are of the same age, so many of the movies chosen are ones I identified with and also enjoyed. He did try to do a wrap-up at the end that basically tried to control the reader's over all thoughts about the book and about him, which I didn't like. However, over-all, this was an enjoyable book that had me lauging out loud several times. Great book as it discusses how Emmett was 'destined' to be an actor from the moment he entered the theater for the first time to see Disney's "The Jungle Book". He then takes us through the movies that had the most effect in his life as a member of the audience and the schemes to get himself noticed and finally running away to the US and eventually landing a role in the Titanic. While he hasn't reach ultimate success as an A-list actor he is comfortable in the fact that he is on the right path which is more than I can say for 99% of the population.
