Love Wallpaper Quotes Biography

There is not a lot of point in reviewing this book; since it is virtually impossible to buy a copy. However those who have recently enjoyed Lynne Olson's "Citizens of London" will want to know much more about its central character Ambassador John Gilbert Winant and may wish to pursue his biography, as I did, through interlibrary loan. By far the most attractive of the "Citizens", Winant remains surrounded by mystery and tragedy at the end of Olson's stunning account. Don't look to ""He Walked Alone" to answer all your questions. It was written at a time when decent respect for the privacy of public figures was still in order. This book is not an exposé. Many of your questions will remain. But if you are attracted by this low key hero, as many of us were, you will feel you know him better and recognize him as a man you would like to call your friend. Especially during this current period of vicious political polarization, readers will appreciate the opportunity to meet a public office holder who was willing to put his all into the welfare of his country--and of the world...and to accept that there are more important ethical values than loyalty to his nominal political party

Lynne Olson examines the public and private details of Winant's contributions to the political and military drama of the combined British and American preparation and execution leading up to D-Day and the consequences afterward. She thoroughly sets forth the conflict between Churchill and Roosevelt as well as the compromises with Stalin. Furthermore she describes the character clashes at all levels of the operation, the extreme hardship of the British people, particlarly when compared to the relatively minor hardships of Americans, and the complicated personal relationships which emerged from the stressful social environment.

Naturally, Macaulay was the very first child to audition for the role, and although the director (Chris Columbus, of Harry Potter fame), was initially unsure whether he was quite right for the role, after auditioning two hundred other young hopefuls, he eventually conceded that no-one could read for the part quite as well as young Culkin. By the time Macaulay was called back for the second audition, he’d already memorized two entire scenes from the script, and Chris Columbus was now totally sure that Macaulay was the perfect actor to play Kevin McCallister! The box office earnings of Home Alone were phenomenal; in the USA alone, it grossed over $285, which made it one of the highest-earning movies of all time. Home Alone also made Macaulay Culkin one of the top movie stars of his day - and all this at the tender age of ten! His cute, blond trademark look - hands slapped around his face, mouth open wide in shock - became a classic expression overnight. Home Alone also brought the opportunity to become a movie actor to Macaulay’s younger brother, Kieran, who played the part of Macaulay’s screen brother in both Home Alone and the sequel.



Whilst the sequel to Home Alone was in production, Macaulay acted in two more films. First came “My Girl” (1991), which was not as popular as it might have been, owing to the character that Culkin played dying prematurely from a bee sting! Next came a cameo role in John Hughes’ film Only The Lonely, which was also released in 1991. Then came Home Alone 2: Lost In New York, which was every bit as successful as Home Alone itself. Macaulay reportedly received a fee of $5 million for reprising the role of Kevin!


Whether on the advice of his father (who by this time was acting as Macaulay’s manager), Mack chose a total change of pace for his next leading role. Any suggestions that he might be becoming typecast were soundly dismissed by his next movie, The Good Son, where he played the demonic role of a child who disguises his psychotic nature behind an angelic blond façade. Macaulay’s fee for this movie had reportedly risen to a staggering $8 million - amazing earnings for a boy actor who had only just turned twelve!

Two comedy movies came next. First there was Getting Even With Dad, in which Macaulay co-starred with Ted Danson, and then there was Richie Rich, where Macaulay played a character inspired by a strip cartoon comic book. Richie Rich was quite well received, Getting Even With Dad was not quite so popular, despite the fact that Macaulay was now the highest-paid child movie star ever.

In 1991, Macaulay also found time to act in the controversial Michael Jackson video, Black or White, directed by John Landis, and in November that same year, he was invited to be a guest host on Saturday Night Live, one of the ultimate accolades of Hollywood stardom!
