What Makes Sammy Run?

The classic book that shaped two generationsâ€™ view of the movie business and introduced the is the archetypal Hollywood player Sammy Glick. Heâ€™s got a machete mouth and a genius for double-cross. As Budd Shulbergâ€”author of the screenplay On the Waterfrontâ€”follows Sammyâ€™s relentless upward progress, he creates a virtuoso study in character that manages to be hilariously appalling yet deeply compassionate.
Â
â€œSammy Glick remains at the top of the Hollywood sleaze heap, a hustler nonpareilâ€¦. What Makes Sammy Run? Is still the quintessential novel about â€œthe all-American heel.â€™â€ â€“ Moredcai Richler, GQ
