Description

From Mean Streets to Casino, Robert De Niro has dominated Hollywood for nearly a quarter of a century. Dynamic & electrifying, his performances have been consistently memorable, & the films he has made with director Martin Scorsese (including Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, & Goodfellas) make a roll-call of some of the greatest cinema of our times. But despite his fame & success, De Niro's private existence is little known & has seldom been explored. Now, for the first time, here is the full story of this astonishing actor's life. Drawing on first-hand interviews with De Niro & some of his closest friends & colleagues, Untouchable is a revealing-and sometimes startling-account of an intensely private man. While previous biographer of De Niro have only scraped the surface of his complex character, Andy Dougan's sensitive & perceptive portrayal lays bare the psychological & emotional scares which this consummate Method actor has sought to hide for so long. Compelling & full of insight, Untouchable: A Biography of Robert De Niro is the definitive account of a great actor's career, & a fascinating view of his complex inner world. Andy Dougan is a respected film reviewer & broadcaster.
