The classic book that shaped two generations view of the movie business and introduced the archetypal Hollywood player Sammy Glick. Hes got a machete mouth and a genius for double-cross. As Budd Shulbergauthor of the screenplay On the Waterfrontfollows Sammys relentless upward progress, he creates a virtuoso study in character that manages to be hilariously appalling yet deeply compassionate. Sammy Glick remains at the top of the Hollywood sleaze heap, a hustler nonpareil. What Makes Sammy Run? Is still the quintessential novel about the all-American heel. Moredcai Richler, GQ
