Summary

A bipolar gangster, a naive young film director, and Batman. What could go wrong? Alex Ferrari is a first-time film director who just got hired to direct a $20 million feature film, the only problem is the film is about Jimmy, an egomaniacal gangster who wants the film to be about his life in the mob. From the backwater towns of Louisiana to the Hollywood Hills, Alex is taken on a crazy misadventure through the world of the mafia and Hollywood.

Huge movie stars, billion-dollar producers, studio heads and, of course, a few gangsters, populate this unbelievable journey down the rabbit hole of chasing your dream. Would you sell your soul to the devil to make your dream come true? By the way, did we mention that this story is based on true events?, no, seriously it is.

Gripping and inspiring

Really enjoyed listening to Alex's story. I'm so pleased he read it himself as I'm so used to his voice from his podcasts. I couldn't stop listening, it is very well written and draws you in so that you have to find what happens next. I appreciate how honest he is in explaining all he had gone through during this time in his life.

A Totally Unbelievable True Story

Wow. Such an incredible story. It's so crazy it's hard to believe your listening to a true story. Funny, well presented, and a story I couldn't stop listening to. Alex, please make a film of this! It's got massive potential.
Only one tiny negative, Boris's voice is so heavily distorted, I struggled to understand a lot of it. An actors voice would have been better. Apart from that this book is awesome
