Book excerpt: 'Actor and director Richard Attenborough is a giant of British cinema - and one of the best connected men in the world of showbusiness ... Now he's telling his extraordinary story ... Moving and enthralling' Daily Mail 'One of the most readable and entertaining showbusiness memoirs I have read ... There are some nail-biting moments, including the desperate struggle to finance Gandhi, which was a whisker away from collapsing mid-shoot and, more alarmingly, an occasion when Attenborough was duffed up by some Afrikaaner thugs while visiting South Africa to research Cry Freedom ... He also writes movingly about his family, including the tsunami tragedy of 2004 ... It's an honest and revealing book and, not surprisingly given Attenborough's longevity in showbusiness and broad life beyond movies, it is chock full of famous names' Sunday Express 'Marvellously readable. Attenborough's passion reverberates on the page and the stories are good' Daily Telegraph 'Classic Attenborough ... So riveting that I was up till 2am reading it' Simon Hattenstone, Guardian
