Comedy Samurai: Forty Years of Blood, Guts, and Laughter - Larry Charles

From Peabody, Golden Globe, and Emmy Award-winning writer/producer/director Larry Charles, a one-of-a-kind hilariously serious and seriously funny saga of modern American comedy and culture, from his work on Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and Borat, and with Bob Dylan, Jerry Seinfeld, Julia Louis-Dreyfuss, Sacha Baron Cohen, Mel Brooks, Bill Maher, Nic Cage, and Larry David, amongst many others. \n Larry Charles's journey is like no other in show business and that's the way he wanted it. He broke all the rules and taboos with glee. On Fridays where he met both Larry David and Michael Richards, on Seinfeld, on Curb Your Enthusiasm, on Entourage, on Borat, Bruno, and The Dictator, on his collaboration with Bill Maher on Religulous, and his collaboration with Bob Dylan on Masked and Anonymous. And when things didn't work out, at least he was fired by such luminaries as Robert Redford, Bob Weinstein and finally by his mentor and friend, Larry David. \n \n Perfect for fans of Seinfeldia and lovers of comedy in general, but shockingly and surprisingly a great book even if you hate all that.\n
