Larry Cohen was a one-of-a-kind filmmaker-a writer, director, and producer who did it his way. This fast-paced, irreverent memoir traces his journey from his Bronx childhood through his groundbreaking television work and his wildly inventive run as a fiercely independent auteur. I Killed Bette Davis is the definitive insider's look at the life and mind of one of cinema's great originals.
I'd hate for you to miss out on all the sordid details, so it's all laid out for you here-all the fun and the fiascos, all the memories, the pain and the pleasures, the films, the battles, the triumphs and misadventures that defined my career. - From Larry Cohen's introduction
Larry Cohen was outrageous. Larry Cohen was a hustler. Larry Cohen was a maverick. And Larry Cohen was a visionary. I miss him. - From John Landis's foreword
