A Very British Lesson K C Bell

A VERY BRITISH LESSON "Work her throughout this film studio until she quits. Get her out of here in five days. If you have ever disliked American women, you will, in short measure grow to despise them. They are a singular group of aggressive, ill-mannered, predators. I was once of the impression that a boot licking, ingratiating, sycophant was distasteful until I met Ms Taylor. I want that little girl to be taught a very British lesson." And into this cauldron of education steps the American, taking the reader along on an excursion of the inner workings of Davidson Studios, where careers are easily created, destroyed and resurrected. By book's end, the question is: Was the very British lesson taught more American than British?
