It's eminently unfair that Tom Hanks should not only be such an incredible actor but also give such great book. Admittedly, I didn't pay any attention to this book aside from the title and the author, at which point I assumed it was a memoir and yet when I realized it wasn't, I was not disappointed in the least. A wide-ranging plot with frequent in-depth characterizations and coincidences (much like ensemble cast movies like Love Actually), The Making of Another Major Motion Picture Masterpiece is enchanting all the way through. The audio recording is much recommended.
