Hollywood: A Third Memoir is a 2010 book from Larry McMurtry. It focuses on his experiences working with Hollywood, as a screenwriter, producer and someone whose work was adapted.[1][2]

Reception

[edit]

The Boston Globe wrote "these latest reminiscences consist, in effect, of the pocket change that fell between the cushions of his previous writings on his favorite subject."[3]

The Los Angeles Times called it "less a fully realized third volume of memoirs than it is a series of terrific vignettes."[4]
