The Devil's Candy: The Anatomy of a Hollywood Fiasco by Julie Salamon
5.0
Reading this is like watching a car crash - you can see everything happen in slow motion and you just cannot manage to stop it - no one can.
It's a brilliant exposition of the project that goes wrong - ever so wrong. Decisions made that cost millions and end up going no where - when egos collide, when the world has shifted but the decision was made - so just keep ploughing a head.
It's a good read at a cracking pace - while there is a cast of thousands to keep track of - they are quickly referred to so you can keep up.
