I've read this before but it was entertaining to read again. Turman's big movie was The Graduate which naturally he talks a lot about - and props to him. He doesn't talk much about his failures such as his attempts to direct. He includes some correspondence with William Goldman - Turnman turned down Goldman's suggestion to do The Moving Target and they tried to make In the Spring the War Ended. Goldman uses the word "f*ggot" in correspondence and accuses George Peppard of wrecking Breakfast at Tiffanys.
Interesting stories about Pretty Poison, The Flim Flam Man and so on.
