Milos Forman was orphaned in a small Czechoslovakian town during World War II:
he was eight years old when his father was taken by the Gestapo and ten when his
mother was taken away as well.
Much of his subsequent life was spent living out of a suitcase and nurturing his dream of making films. He is the director of such Czech film classics as 'A Blonde in Love' and
'Fireman's Ball'. However, it was when he emigrated to New York that his international reputation was secured and his vision fully realized with 'Taking Off', 'Hair', 'Ragtime', 'Valmont' and especially 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest' and 'Amadeus', both of which won Oscars for Best Director and Best Picture of the Year. All display Forman's distinctive artistry.
This frank, vibrant, passionate memoir, written with novelist Jan Novak, brings the
traumatic experience of Eastern Europe in this century brilliantly to life and takes the
reader inside the very process of artistic creation.
Contains 32 pages of b/w photographs.
