Nancy Sphinctergritzel (1904-2010), the notorious Hollywood lush, had an imaginary love affair with Rudolph Valentino for over 8o years. The quintessential example of Machiavellian insanity, her lifelong aim was to prove he never had sex with men, that she was the only woman he had ever loved. While doing so, no crime was too heinous for her—even murder. It took her 67 years to write 'My Life With Rudy', minutes for the victims of her homophobia to destroy. She married seven times.

As Philip Shufflewick-Voss he entered the movies, yet when fame beckoned, this sympathetic young man had but one quest—to destroy the woman who had destroyed others whose only crime was, like himself, loving other men.
