Description: Deborah Kerr by Eric Braun copyright 1978 1st edition. This book with dustjacket is in very good condition - Dustjacket in very good condition with very minor wear and book has no torn nor missing pages. Signed Card attached to title page "Deborah Kerr" "Sweet virgin, you have a very spiritual face!" This pronouncement by Gabriel Pascal, the legendary Hungarian film producer, heralded the rise to fame and stardom of Britain's best-loved gift to Hollywood Deborah Kerr. She exemplified both qualities on the screen with enormous success for years, until the "perfect English rose" image was shattered by her inspired portrayal of a nyphomaniac in From Here To Eternity. This book was written in 1977, when typically, star biographies were neither particularly honest nor too personal. This is a gushing tribute to DK's supposed unspoilt and unpretentious behaviour and does a good biblographic job of her film career. There is an interesting summary of her early years and the apparently effortless break into stardom, but it doesn't address any personal issues or obstacles. For example she apparently told Noel Coward in 1959 that she was fighting for custody of her children and then there are the rumoured affairs with two co-stars. It would be interesting to hear of her life since 1977, particularly with regard to her battle with Parkinson's Disease.
