When celebrities talk to Rex Reed, they find themselves revealing more about their lives, their friends and enemies-and, ultimately, the way we live now - than when they talk to any other journalist. For example: Bette Davis: "Karen Black changes her makeup in the middle of a scene so nothing matches on the screen, she sleeps all day, never goes to rushes to see what she looks like, and you can*t hear one bloody thing she says on the set. When I made movies, you could hear me in a tunnel!" David Bowie; "I like men. I like black girls, I can be a hundred different people in a hundred different scenes." Valerie Perrine: "I'd much rather be getting laid . . . I wanna play a whore again. It's so much more fun to be tacky!" Lillian Hellman on Tallulah Bankhead: "That hatred was mutual." Sylvia Syms; "Mae West took me on the road for a year and was wonderful until I got my first rave review. Then she turned into a monster. I weighed over two hundred pounds, and Mae added forty more pounds of padding to my costume to humiliate me. Marvin Hamlisch: "I had to beg Barbra Streisand to sing 'The Way We Were.' She never wanted to do it. She said it was too simple. Dody Goodman: "At first, Jack Paar couldn't do enough for me. Then I started getting too popular . . . so he cut me down to two or three nights a week.

Couverture souple. Condition: Comme neuf. Edition originale. Entre 1870 et 1930, les agressions à l'acide se multiplient en France. Majoritairement accomplies par des femmes issues des classes populaires, qui entendent se venger de leur ancien compagnon ou de leur rivale en leur projetant du vitriol au visage, elles sont considérées, de manière réductrice, comme des crimes passionnels. Reléguées dans la rubrique des faits divers, elles suscitent toutefois des peurs et des fantasmes, alimentent les débats sur les droits des femmes et les relations entre les sexes, convoquent l'imaginaire d'un peuple volontiers barbare et frondeur. La vitrioleuse devient une figure criminelle qui incarne la cruauté féminine et dont le geste conduit à défigurer sa victime, détruire ses traits et annihiler son identité. Loin d'avoir disparu de nos jours dans certains pays, ces agressions, bien souvent masculines, désormais interprétées comme des crimes d'honneur, sont devenues le symbole des violences faites aux femmes. Docteure en histoire, Karine Salomé a notamment publié L'ouragan homicide. L'attentat politique en France au XIXe siècle (Champ Vallon, 2010) et Je prie pour Carnot qui va être assassiné ce soir. Un attentat contre la République, 24 juin 1894 (Vendémiaire, 2012).
