Barrymore

Audiobook

A man is not old until regrets take the place of dreams.

John Barrymore was the black sheep of America's most illustrious acting family. Celebrated for his charisma and matinee-idol looks, he was, for a while, America's most popular actor. Famous for his stage roles in Richard III and Hamlet, he also made more than fifty films. But alcoholism soon dissipated his talents, and he became known more for his Falstaffian behavior and outrageous high jinks than for his art.
