Anger's shortcomings in Hollywood Babylon II are well documented: erroneous information, incorrect dates, bald-faced lies. I would never use this book as a research document, but it is a stepping stone for someone interested in all the dirty little secrets of old Hollywood. The pictures are what really make the book. Hollywood Babylon II is like driving past the scene of a horrific automobile accident: you are disgusted by what you see, but you are compelled to look. Speaking of looking, while the crime scene photos of the Black Dahlia are gut-wrenching, the ones that I found the most disturbing were the photos of Bob Cummings, Broderick Crawford and Oliver Hardy in drag! Buy this book. Whether you love it or hate, you can't honestly give an opinion until you've read it from cover to cover and then read what it's critics have said.Read full review
