There is - and could only ever be - one Billy Bob Thornton: actor, musician, Academy Award-winning screenwriter, and accidental Hollywood badass. In The Billy Bob Tapes, he spins colourful tales of his dirt-poor Southern upbringing, his Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (fear of komodo dragons and antiques), his life, his loves (including his marriage to fellow Oscar winner Angelina Jolie), and, of course, his movie career.
The Billy Bob Tapes is full of incredible stories and righteous philosophical rants, told with the help of his close friend, legendary country music star and bestselling author, Kinky Friedman. Put these two iconoclasts together and you get a story that's not just a celebrity memoir, but a unique, hilarious and insightful pop culture manifesto.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
Thornton is a powerful storyteller ... His voice is a powerful one, peppered with profanity and with just the right amount of humour and mania. * Daily Express *
