David Niven appeared in films for over 50 years of his life, from swashbucklers such as The Prisoner of Zenda & The Guns of Navarone to the Pink Panther series. Despite his on-screen persona, Niven wasn?t always the perfect gentleman. He was insecure both privately & professionally & used people to get ahead. But he did, he said, ?at least try to be a decent man. ? He knew he often failed, although it isn?t easy to find people who ever had a bad word to say about him. In this fascinating biography of the star, Munn looks at the funny stories & the sad underlying truth, from his outrageous days with Errol Flynn & their irrevocable split ?? You always know where you are with Flynn. He always lets you down? ? & numerous affairs with stars & prostitutes, to an attempted suicide, his horrific experiences in war-torn France & the breakdown & blame of his second marriage. This compelling text

Includes:: interviews with his second wife, Hjordis, John Huston, Rex Harrison, Laurence Olivier, Loretta Young (they discussed marriage once), Nivens long-time friend Michael Trubshawe, Peter Ustinov, Ava Gardner & many more. Funny, poignant & told with the compassion of one who knew him, this is a fascinating portrayal of a legend that really gets behind the screen & autobiographical persona.
