ReviewsPraise for The Kid Stays in the Picture: "The best Hollywood memoir I've ever read!" -- Michael Fleming, Variety "Don't even try to put it down." -- Janet Maslin, New York Times "A naughty, outrageous, and wild ride--and perhaps the best Hollywood memoir ever written." -- Publishers Weekly Top Three Greatest Hollywood Tell-Alls -- Entertainment Weekly "A sequel better than any [readers] could have anticipated... It's a remarkable story of endurance, faith and determination, even readers who've never heard of Evans will find this to be both entertaining and inspiring. A harrowing but lively supplement to The Kid Stays in the Picture." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "The notorious kid is still in the picture... Evans has produced a quintessential Hollywood memoir." -- Kirkus Reviews "A compelling and, at times, deeply emotional memoir." -- Booklist
