| Description: |
Marlon Brando, Dennis Hopper, Warren Beatty and Jack Nicholson are bad men for whom rules did not apply, men for whom normal standards of behaviour were simply too wearisome to worry about. These are men who brawled, boozed, snorted and shagged their way into legend-hood - but along the way they changed acting and the way movies were made forever. |
| Synopsis: |
'I don't know what people expect when they meet me. They seem to be afraid that I'm going to piss in the potted palm and slap them on the ass' - Marlon Brando. 'I should have been dead ten times over. I believe in miracles. It's an absolute miracle that I'm still around' - Dennis Hopper. 'The best time to get married is noon. That way, if things don't work out, you haven't blown the whole day' - Warren Beatty. 'You only lie to two people in your life: your girlfriend and the police' - Jack Nicholson.They're the baddest bad asses Hollywood has ever seen: Marlon Brando, Dennis Hopper, Warren Beatty and Jack Nicholson. These are men for whom rules did not apply, men for whom normal standards of behaviour were simply too wearisome to worry about. These are men who brawled, boozed, snorted and shagged their way into legend-hood - but along the way they changed acting and the way movies were made forever. "Bad Boy Drive" is a whistle-stop tour of jaw-dropping sexual activity, misbehaviour of an Olympic standard, all-out excess and genuine madness. It's a wonder Hollywood survived. |

Unreliable Sources
Examines how Great Britain's free press changed the world and changed itself over the course of the last hundred years, from the creation of the "Daily Mail" and the first stokings of anti-German sentiment in the years leading up to the First World War, to the "Sun"'s propping up of the Thatcher government, and beyond.

The Crucible of Christianity
Christianity is the largest religion in the world, its influence felt in every corner of the globe. But where did this religion come from? How did it take shape and formulate its beliefs? This book takes us back to the beginnings, setting us in the world of the Roman Empire and assessing the dominant philosophies of the time.
