Description de l'ouvrage:
Long known to movie fans as the “King of Horror,” Vincent Price—he of the highly distinctive voice—once reflected, “I sometimes feel that I'm impersonating the dark unconscious of the whole human race. I know this sounds sick, but I love it.” Over the decades, he appeared in such well-remembered screen thrillers as Tower of London, House of Wax, The Fly, The Tingler, Pit and the Pendulum, The Abominable Dr. Phibes, and Theatre of Blood. But the real-life Vincent Price was also the personification of a complete Renaissance man who fully believed: “A man who limits his interests limits his life.” This is the fascinating account of the actor who rose to become one of the most cultured—and popular—men of his time. From his appearances in more than 100 films and thousands of radio and TV shows the actor is well known. However, he also authored best-selling art books, lectured extensively on art and history, supervised the purchase of thousands of works of fine arts, wrote gourmet cookbooks, and served on the Indian Arts and Crafts Board. Vincent Price Unmasked is the engrossing portrait of this multi-faceted and highly talented personality. Completing this illuminating narrative on Vincent Price is an annotated filmography.
